Collaboration - Soda_Jerk

Sydney-based artists Soda_Jerk are Dan and Dominique Angeloro. Soda_Jerk work with found material - audio, video, and still images - which they then recombine and recontextualise. For Soda_Jerk, video "conveys the sense of a fragment of time teleported into the now". Picnic at Wolf Creek, for example, is a ten minute video work that remixes video footage and sound clips from iconic Australian films. Soda_Jerk, collaborate not just with each other but also force a collaboration between themselves and the authors of their sampled material.

I don't want to pull pics off their website, but here's the link.
