2/5 BZ aka Serhat Köksal :   ªno turistik, no egzotik´
As live-performance artist, Köksal mixes raw electronica with an
Istanbul street noise backdrop and ghetto-blaster distorted oriental  
pop:
Turkish foreign and self depictions in the breakbeat shredder!
And the screen flickers, too: analogous to the sound, in addition to his
work on samples and electronics, Köksal also deconstructs Turkish films
from the 1970s: cut-up art for eyes and ears
