Combining an early-80s New Wave androgynous flair and a plugged-in proto-cyberpunk sensibility, Almy’s delirious data-trip, Leaving the 20th Century, remains one of the most formidable experimental videos of its decade. For his 16mm feature, Junk, Roddy Bogawa turns to a later set of musical influences: the post-apocalyptic tendencies of post-punk noise. (Ed Halter)
