The best way to explain Show-Bix for posterity is perhaps as a group experimenting with media and aesthetics, a group that were a part of the contemporary artistic network, but at the same time sought to break with the prevailing (and narrow) artistic production orthodoxies, and instead present the audience with a series of qualified alternatives to the existing art scene. They called their productions ‘pieces’ and ‘anti-happenings’. The members of the group actively sought out media and technologies as platforms for a brand new and different expression, which intentionally operates in opposition to the mass-media, and the collective ‘media-consciousness’.
