The Mythic Being

An excerpted segment from a film, Other Than Art's Sake by the Australian artist Peter Kennedy, this is a hilarious documentation and interview by Peter on my Mythic Being street performances. It shows me getting into and out of drag, rehearsing my mantra, and roaming the streets muttering it, followed by crowds of curious onlookers who are attracted by Peter's film equipment and technicians. Other Than Art's Sake also includes work by and interviews with Ian Breakwell, Judy Chicago and Arlene Raven, Hans Haacke, David Medalla, Charles Simonds, and Stephen Willats.
