Conner’s inventive technique and conceptual density using assemblage, montage, and tour-de-force editing has made him the originator of many movements. When asked if he was the father of MTV, he replied with, “I demand a DNA test.” or “Don’t blame me!” The second of two programs celebrates Conner’s perfect unity and displacement of sound and picture, ranging from Conner’s recent re-edit of REPORT #3, the birth of punk with DEVO’s “Mongoloid” to the nostalgic reflection on his boyhood in Kansas, accompanied by the sentimental score of Sibelius’ “Valse Triste.”
