On Saturday the 24th of May, Oporto is once again delighted to present afilm:"SONIC OUTLAWS" by Craig Baldwin16mm transfer to DVD NTSC, 87min, 1995.

Craig Baldwin (1952) is an American experimental filmmaker. He uses foundfootage and images from the mass media to undermine and transform thetraditional documentary. He also manages Other Cinema (www.othercinema.com),a micro-cinema in San Francisco, and a DVD label with the same name.
In 1991, Negativland sampled an audiotape of Casey Kasem mixed with samples from a U2 song. In a highly publicized case, U2's label, Island Records, charged Negativland with copyright and trademark infringement for appropriating the letter U and the number 2, even though U2 had in turnborrowed its name from the Central Intelligence Agency spy plane. Sonic Outlaws, is a fragmented, gleefully anarchic documentary approach tothe Negativland / U2 incident, expanding upon the ideas behind Negativland's guerrilla recording tactics. "Here is your chance for an obnoxious and appropriate response to corporate music greed. "Mark Hosler from Negativland, will kindly introduce the film.
