Robert Boyd: Xanadu February 12, 2007

Robert Boyd's 'Xanadu' is a synchronized 4-channel video installation that probes society's self-destructive impulse while parodying various elements of popular culture, such as documentaries, news media, cartoons and pop music. Culled from hundreds of hours of archival footage, they tweak, condense and re-frame modern events into seconds-long image bites, re-presenting history as a series of MTV-style music videos.
