The Rebel
Barden's Boudoir
London
19th September, 2006

A long-tern moniker of artist Ben Wallers The Rebel have been recording and playing under this Hancock hommage-title since 1989, and his lyrical project has at times mirrored the film's scrutiny of the 'urge to mock' rhetoric of anti-intellectualism. The symbolic monikor of The Rebel is the Spakenkreutz (pictured) which has been given two and three-dimensional form, and banner status as the symbol for S.P.A.K.O.: The Society for the Protection and Killing of Octopuses. Here is a sample (two short excerpts of footage) of The Rebel performing at Barden's Boudoir in Dalston, London with Sophie Politowicz on drums, behind a sheet of painted Spakenkreutz.
