Not Channel Zero Goes to War video will be part of Signals: How Video Transformed the World at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York City.
Not Channel Zero was a video series produced by Black Planet Productions, a New York City-based video collective of African American video artists formed in the early 1990s. It combined alternative television style with a critique of commercial media, using low-end, accessible technology and extremely small budgets, sometimes only fifty dollars. For three years, the collective produced regular programming for Manhattan Cable Access on the anti-war movement, homophobia in communities of color, police brutality, sexism, and urban issues in Black and Latino communities. Revising the famous Gil Scott Heron phrase, their motto was "The Revolution, Televised," asserting they were making "grassroots, Afrocentric television aiming at politics, culture, and re-education." The collective adopted Afrocentric style, form, and content, bringing hip hop strategies of slow motion, fast forwarding, and repetition to their videos as they appropriated commercial media images.
Black Planet Production was founded by Thomas Poole, George Sosa and Cyrille Phipps, and members included Jacqueline Dolly, Donna Golden, Mark Aubert, Joan Baker and Art Jones.
