David Bowie: Afraid Of Americans

Coming soon

Archive note

Promotional artifact for an unreleased interactive music video experience, circa 1997. Features David Bowie in a gritty urban setting, referencing his 1997 single with Trent Reznor. The tagline—doubled and declarative—suggests a multimedia installation or VHS-era pop-up video hybrid, positioning Bowie as both vulnerable and confrontational. Text references 'Sound & Vision', 'Pop-Up Video', and 'MTV Select', implying a cross-media collaboration that never materialized. Collectors of alternate music-technology histories and Bowie ephemera.

Catalogued, not yet released. This artifact will become available to acquire soon.

One artifact. One owner. On acquisition it is permanently retired from the archive. You receive the high-resolution file and a signed certificate of exclusivity.
