Autopsia [Special]

Autopsia [Special]

Autopsia is an art project dealing with music and visual production. Autopsia gathers authors of different professions in realization of multimedia projects. Its art practice began in London in the late 1970's, continued during the 80's in the art centers of former Yugoslavia. Since 1990, Autopsia has acted from Prague - Czech Republic. At the beginning of its activity Autopsia issued dozens of MC's, in the period after 1989, twenty CDs were issued, at first for Staalplaat from Amsterdam, then for German label Hypnobeat and London's Gymnastic Records. One of its compositions is a part of the soundtrack for Peter Greenaway's The Pillow Book. Music production of Autopsia can be classified as experimental, breakcore, avant-garde, ambient, industrial; it's associated with a large graphic production which consists of original graphic objects, design of flyers, posters, booklets, CDs, experimental films andaudio installations.

Autopsia is not a multi-media project, but its involvement in music, poetry and art are linked in a special way. Text and image have their relevance for an extended reading of music production. In a certain way they provide the historicity for the sound which is bodyless and placeless. Text and image embody music production, they are not external supplements, but they arise along with musical ideas. Thus, the application of text and image is not some "other activity" of Autopsia, but an integral element of the project itself. There is a certain network of crossings, passages, between sound, text and image, which is based in their essential framework, their underlying structure. I make use of three media to the extent that this framework is sustainable and comprehensible, that the meaning of their intertwining is preserved, or maintained.
