While society, corporations and politics use images and medias to exert a control on the masses, V-Atak challenges common sense and ideas through images and sounds. The process that has become our trademark, distorting contemporary media icons to recreate an original sense, offers the public an opportunity to question with irony and violence the mass media representations. VJ Meat is the knight!!!
VJ MEAT, this avatar from label v-atak, is a true visual ecarissor: he hacks, crushes and laminates his different sources to the last fragment. He mixes the videos of V-Atak, Fame Fame,Madame Chao, Lovid and more, thus creating a subtly brutal, scathing and immersive atmosphere.
Founded in 2001, V-Atak is a label dedicated to audio and visual art.
Made up with a hybrid mix of Vj's, movie makers and musicians, our label grew year after year and developed an edgy identity on the Audio/Video live scene.
When performing video/audio live art and producing music clips as well, our crew is at its best by taking risks. Our services and products (installations, Vjing, DVDs) reflect that constant questioning we have on manner and matter, playing with the ever-changing digital technology and its limits.
V-Atak artists performs internationaly since ten years now, all over Europe, USA, Australia, Japan, Canada and Africa! Their goal is to spread the v-irus.....
