Charlemagne Palestine, real name Charles Martin, was born 1945 in New York. Charlemagne has worked as both a performer and composer in the 60's and early 70's. Most of his works deal with sound, motion, and the importance of ritual. Though I couldn't find any videos that Charlemagne created himself this video gives a cursory glance into the themes and meanings behind his work.
Great work Nick. I love the camera's following nature. Your work kept me thinking "how did he do that?!". You really capture a cold feeling, and rather mechanical, to the piece. Probably experimenting with monitors would of served good as well which, as you know, Nauman used in the Public/ Private space installation. R.T
