Task 2

3. To what extent does the combination of video and song in Symphonies conform to Charles Jencks' view that 'Post-Modernism is fundamentally the eclectic mixture of any tradition with that of its immediate past...' ? (All AO's)

I think to a large extent the combination of the video and song in Symphonies conforms to Charles Jencks' views that 'Post-Modernism is fundamentally the eclectic mixture of any tradition with that of its immediate past'. I believe this because it has used a traditional idea of creating a music video but the video consists of film openings that have been re-created. The majority of the films that Dan Black has used are also reasonably old such as from the 80's but this fits in with the 'immediate past idea'. As well as the video, he has combined a modern song by Rihanna with an instrumental song for the film Starman which was created in 1984.
