PLAYBACK Playback is a collaborative video-work by artists Atalya Laufer and Persefoni Myrtsou. Especially created for the Contemporary Art Centre Thessaloniki in the framework of Storefront Marketplace Thessaloniki organised by Christina Green and Sandra Teitge, Playback evokes a Karaoke experience that celebrates popular music among Greeks and Israelis. Spanning from early 20th century classics to contemporary trash-pop, the songs share similar melodies but differ in lyrical interpretation. For Playback, several Greek songs and their appropriated Israeli counterparts become hybrids, composed of fragments of video clips from YouTube uploads. Live performances, official clips, stills, and fan interpretations in both countries are assembled into a carefully composed audiovisual collage, in which the ‘familiar’ overshadows the ‘other’ as songs disintegrate and conjoin. _______ FOLLOW LIPSapp Turnt Up!
