Are Ravers less
ageist than other youth movements?
John Law To me, being an old fart, the underground rave
culture seems to be a really vibrant thing and they've certainly
taken to the Burning Man event. We had five systems out there
this year, and they're very welcome. Its a very important part
of what we're doing - I think. You may find different opinions
about that amongst the Burning Man organisers. There are some
old rock and roll farts who say "Turn it down!" but
see, to me that's like my dad not liking Elvis Presley.
Pranksters
Do you see what you're doing as following
in the footsteps of pranksters from other times?
John Law Personally I'm a fan of some of the Situationists
stuff that came out of France and the Surrealists and Dadaists.
Alfred Jarry is a big hero of mine, and they were all effectively
doing pranks, and many of them have been termed artists in retrospect.
Whether they would accept that cage, I don't know, and they're
dead now so you can't ask. I'm a prankster myself, I've been called
an artist but I don't really accept that box. The stuff you're
talking about doesn't usually get into art galleries. Art galleries
are big commercial clearing houses, basically, and I'm not terribly
interested in them and I don't think most of the people I work
with are either.
