Summary:

"Ant Farm's Dirty Dishes is a freewheeling portapak time capsule that captures the collective spirit of Ant Farm's life and work in California in the early 1970s. ... Chip Lord writes: 'It's an anthology of clips from the first year of living with a portapak and it gives a fairly good representation of the way we lived in those days - collectively, loosely, improvisationally. The year was 1970 and Ant Farm, recently relocated from a foray in Texas and expanded to include new members, partners, and frequent visitors, settled into a metal warehouse building on the waterfront in Sausalito, California to pursue the practice of 'underground architecture.'"--Electronic Arts Intermix, http://www.eai.org/title.htm?id=5956
