About
Vicki Bennett has spent over three decades making genuinely strange and wonderful things under the name People Like Us. Working out of London, she builds audio and visual collages from existing recordings and footage, turning the wreckage of popular culture into something funny, dark, and consistently surprising. Her releases have come out on labels including Touch, Staalplaat, Tigerbeat6, and Soleilmoon, and she has collaborated with Matmos, Christian Marclay, and members of Negativland, among others. Her work stretches well beyond recorded music. She has performed at the Sydney Opera House, the Pompidou Centre, Tate Modern, and countless festivals, and since 2003 she has hosted the experimental arts show DO or DIY on WFMU, which also runs as a continuous 24 hour stream of sound collage curated by Bennett herself. Her 2015 audiovisual piece Citation City, inspired by Walter Benjamin's Arcades Project, gives a good sense of how seriously she takes the collage form as a way of thinking, not just listening.
