Notes
Remote Control surveys the enormous impact that television has had upon contemporary culture through a range of artistic engagement with the medium and offers a look at how the next generation are responding to digital convergence. The exhibition includes many important works that reveal the power and influence of television broadcasting on politics and society. Remote Control coincides with the digital switchover in the UK and marks the end of analogue broadcasting, representing a milestone in the evolution of the medium.

As the analogue form of television becomes obsolete, Remote Control will simultaneously unveil a ruin whilst gesturing towards the future with a live programme entitled Television Delivers People. Participants include Bob Stanley, Experimental TV Center, Stephen Sutcliffe, Jonny Woo and Lucky PDF. The exhibition is the first of a brand new programme of major themed exhibitions at the ICA tackling Sound, Installation, Drawing, Sculpture, Photography and Performance over the next 12 to 18 months.
