“I knew there was this punk rock stuff, I didn’t know anything about it, I just went to a show, and it was like, this is really weird and I kinda like it.” —Dread Scott

 

Dread Scott, artist and friend of Interference Archive, speaks with Vero Ordaz about his art, life, and connections to the Chicago punk scene--including memories prompted by his recent donation of posters to the archive.  Image: Burning the US Constitution, documentation of a 2011 performance by Dread Scott (www.dreadscott.net).  Music: "Sick of You" by the Britemores, performed live on WFMU's Three Chord Monte with Joe Belock.
