Description
Sculpture and Installations Film, Audio, Video and Digital Art For inSITE97, Miguel Calderon created a short film spoofing satanic practices near the San Diego-Tijuana border, incorporating stereotypical UFO paraphernalia and imagery to emphasize the "cheesy" nature of both subjects. The film, "Death Perra," was shown on a small television at the Casa de la Cultural de Tijuana. Produced in the style of a music video, Calderon used satanic UFO records as the sound track, mixing scenes of his friends playing records on turntables with scenes of artificial UFOs in different locations. --inSITE97 Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) This image is a scan of a 35mm color slide from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 309, Folder 02, Item 056) [Title, Date].
