I'm in this movie, and I think that they did an excellent job. They have many friends and peers of mine - Jeff Chang, Chuck D (who appeared on my album "Drums of Death"), Clyde Stubblefiend, the drummer for James Brown, and many others. I HIGHLY recommend this film for anyone who is interested in digital culture.!
D.J. Spins Museum’s Attitude By ALLAN KOZINN

SOON after the Metropolitan Museum of Art hired Limor Tomer last year to oversee its concerts and lectures department, she invited her old friend Paul D. Miller, the hip-hop turntablist, composer and author, on a private tour of the galleries.
The two had known each other since the 1990s, when Ms. Tomer was overseeing the programming at the Brooklyn Academy of Music’s BAMcafé, and Mr. Miller was starting his career as “D J Spooky, That Subliminal Kid.” By the end of their walkabout, which hadn’t begun with an agenda, Ms. Tomer and Mr. Miller were sketching out ideas that he will explore in a yearlong artist residency at the Met that begins Friday with a screening of the 1956 South Korean film “Madame Freedom.” Mr. Miller has composed a new soundtrack score for the film that he and a string quartet will perform live.
“What I tend to do,” Ms. Tomer said, “is walk around the museum with artists and try to see the galleries from their perspective — to see what they see and to understand what speaks to them and how they would animate these spaces. With Paul every gallery we visited he’d say, ‘Oh, yeah, I have this project.’ In the Asian gallery he was talking about early Korean film and postwar Korean theater, art and culture. When we went to the Oceanic gallery it turned out he’s building an artist retreat on a small Pacific island and has been studying the musical instruments there.” The tour led Ms. Tomer to reconsider what residencies at the Met — previously long-term affairs — should be and to see Mr. Miller as exactly the game changer she was looking for.

DJ SPOOKY & SMITHSONIAN
ROMARE BEARDEN: A BLACK ODYSSEY APP Dj Spooky has contributed music and narrated the new App from The Smithsonian Museum traveling retrospective of Romare Bearden for iOS and Android operating systems.
Antarctica, the only uninhabited continent, belongs to no single country and has no government. While certain countries lay claim to portions of the landmass, it is the only solid land on the planet with no unified national affiliation. Drawing on the continent’s rich history of inspiring exploration and artistic endeavors, Paul D. Miller a.k.a. DJ Spooky has put together his own multimedia, multidisciplinary study of Antactica. Book of Ice is one aspect of this ongoing project.
In light of climate change and tireless human enterprise to be present everywhere on the planet, Miller uses Antarctica as a point on entry for contemplating humanity’s relationship with the natural world. The two additional contributors to The Book Of Ice - Columbia University's Brian Greene, best selling author of The Elegant Universe, and Ross A. Virginia, Director of Arctic Studies at Dartmouth College, a world renowned expert on Antarctica - add several layers of analysis to the books exploration of the theme of science and graphic design.
Using photographs and film stills from his journey to the bottom of the world, along with original artworks and re-appropriated archival materials, Miller ponders how Antarctica could liberate itself from the rest of the world. Part fictional manifesto, part history and part science book, Book of Ice furthers Miller’s reputation as an innovative artist capable of making the old look new.

THE VANUATU PACIFICA FOUNDATION and TANNA CENTER FOR THE ARTS
Vanuatu is a four-hour flight from Sydney
For centuries, the Naihné People of Tanna have lived on this island in Vanuatu's southern-most province, Tafea.
In late 2009, their leadership invited Paul D. Miller (aka DJ Spooky) to form an artists retreat within their remote eastern territory.
In early 2011, Vanuatu Pacifica Foundation will begin building Tanna Center for the Arts in this beautiful and isolated part of the island. The artists retreat will function as a carbon negative, culturally supportive demonstration model, incorporating a digital media lab and island-restorative education center to aid the goals expressed by the people of this tropical paradise.

Infinite Abstraktion by DJ Spooky that Subliminal Kid
Artist Statement:
JG Ballard once said "history is a stage that needs to be swept clean." I agree. When I first heard Grand Master Flash's "Adventures on the Wheels of Steel" from 1981, I was blown away. Afrika Bambaata's "Death Mix" was cool, but Flash took things in a whole different direction. //ARTIST STATEMENT AND TRACK LIST HERE //DJ Spooky iPhone App

The Secret Song– isnʼt really an album: itʼs a manifesto about the place of history in our modern collaged, scrambled, sampla-delic to the core, mega info overloaded digital culture. With references stretching from Thorstein Veblenʼs “Theory of the Leisure Class” and John Maynard Keynes classic in the field of economics “The General Theory of Employment, Interest, and Money” over to hip hopʼs relationship to psychoanalysis and a la Edward Bernayʼs concept of the “manufacture of consent” – DJ Spookyʼs new album is a groundbreaking meditation on hip hop and electronic musics relationship to philosophy, economics, //LISTEN TO THE ALBUM ON
AOL MUSIC (SPINNER)and the science of sound in a world where the steady drumbeat of the financial meltdown has made music the last refuge of young people with less and less time and money. DJ Spookyʼs peer group of artists like DJ Krush, DJ Shadow, Cut Chemist, RJD2, DJ Logic, Amon Tobin, and Coldcut have all played with the idea of concept albums. With “The Secret Song” DJ Spooky looks to bands like Nine Inch Nails, and Radiohead for inspiration. As DJ Spooky likes to say "people - it's ALL about economics." Dig?
