Michaela Melián
MANIFESTO
Performance for a record player, a record, a microphone, a voice

Hold out when you′re in doubt
Question what you see
And when you find an answer
Bring it home to me.

The performance is a reference to the so-called first music video (1965), which in the original is the opening sequence of the film Dont Look Back by D.A. Pennebaker.
