Punk Research Centre presents itself for first time with a wild improv by Frauduleus
The Punk Research Centre (PRC) presented itself for the first time to the general public on the 1st of May 2008 in Exit / Rotterdam. The PRC created with it’s performance squad Frauduleus – consisting of the PRC founders Prof. Sidhy Idiopath and Stigmadome – a wild and yet controlled improvised atmosphere of astonishment and revolutionary potential. Using staccato cut video clips projected on them and the soundtracks as accompaniment for their freestyle and Sprechgesang. Of course the reactionary members of the audience said it was old-fashioned and had been done before. But those living in the present took the improvised presentation of the PRC’s definition, ideology and style, all in their own way. This was just a modest warming up.It served as dissonant/dissident upbeat for Fuck the Writer’s first appearance with the new line up of his band the Illiterates and with repertoire from their coming cd. The brilliant, lively and critcal songs of FTW were welcomed like a spring rain. When FTW said Punk didn’t exist anymore, he actually used a punk-like provocation and a historical definition of the term punk. Prof. Sidhy is operating from a far wider interpretation.
