David Blandy.  
David Blandy's work deals with identity, the construction of the self through mass media, subcultures and his relationship with popular culture. His previous works have included being a hermit in residence,  
reenacting the classic Father to son confessional (with the artists own father)  from Darth Vader to Luke  from Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back  and  making an alternate video for the Wu Tang Clan on the London Underground.  
He has been  selected  for  art show New Contemporaries  and completed projects for Grizedale Arts.  
Radio Nights  30 mins DVD 2005  
Radio Nights is a documentary film by artist David Blandy and young people from the Avenues Youth Project in Queen's Park, London. It investigates the invisible worlds of the listeners and broadcasters of West London's rich radio culture, from late night call-ins to underground MCs tussling for airwaves, from the pirate innovators of the 1980s to the Grime stars of the future. 
"Ya Get Me ? "  10 Mins   DVD 2005  
" Ya get me?" investigates street talk and underground language- 
 rhyming slang, hip-hop phrases, new inventions- words outsiders don't  understand. The project was initiated by thoughts about how much 
 language defines both the self and community. A street talk 
 dictionary was also produced, which was compiled in collaboration 
 with the youth group involved. 
* Passion is a radio station in Bristol.
