This piece, entitled “Full Financial Disclosure,” is from a collection of Chris Burden TV commercials that aired during the wee small hours of the morning, mixed in with those delightful Cal Worthington Ford and Zachary All spots on various Los Angeles television stations, from 1973 to 1977. Burden explains: “During the early seventies I conceived a way to break the omnipotent stranglehold of the airwaves that broadcast television had. The solution was to simply purchase commercial advertising time and have the stations play my tapes along with their other commercials.” The entire series can be viewed at UbuWeb.
