Theme Song II

This tape borrows its name from the seminal Vito Acconci tape, re-packaging the self-delusional banter of the Acconci piece in a formalised and much truncated version. While Acconci's persona appeared only want to get laid in the original, the character in Theme Song II has different goals. Image and text combine to articulate the rampant image-based narcissism that permeates a society ever increasingly hung up on "celebrity."
