    Artist/musician/writer/producer/professor Paul D. Miller aka DJ Spooky, That Subliminal Kid, will not play your house party. He has collaborated with the likes of Kool Keith, Chuck D. and Dave Lombardo, and has become a cornerstone of Asphodel Records. The philosophical trip-hop prodigy has contributed work as a media artist that has appeared at the Whitney Biennial, The Venice Biennial for Architecture, the Ludwig Museum in Cologne and The Andy Warhol Museum. Miller is constantly in motion, working and experimenting within the increasing convergence of media forms and outlets from which he draws much of his inspiration. His film, REBIRTH OF A NATION, has been called a brilliant application of DJ-technique to the motion picture. Part multimedia installation, part film, part music concert- Spooky remixes D.W. Griffith's BIRTH OF A NATION with his own unique music and designs, creating a highly affecting alternative take on Griffith's racially intolerant epic. This is your chance to examine the process and product of one of the art world's most celebrated turntablists.
