  • Don't see why they did so much prep work, or what was so special, rednecks do this all the time.

  • LOL! So wish I had see this before I started (and left!) my TV Career!

    Thank you!

  • I was a U of H architecture student in 68-72, took a "class" with Michels and Lord. Ant Farm were out of the box thinkers - this video is about the (then) US corporate giant stereotypes and the media's coverage - a cynical mockery of both. Early concept art.

    What would they do today ?

  • We have to remember here that this is the 1970's and after the oil embargo of '73 1959 Cadillacs were regarded as excessive junk- like we look at cars from the 1980s today- piles of worthless out of date junk. They were trashed by the thousands! 10-15 yrs from now the Escalade and other big expensive cars will be looked at the same way. 1 less of the 1320 of the Eldorado Biarritz convertibles. Now there are less than 450 of these cars accounted for and well restored ones sell for $150k to $210k!

  • Did the flaming TV's die?

  • Yeah. I think it's over their heads.

  • I remember this used as the closing shots of WTTW's show Image Union.

  • it is so great this crew is alum from my college and believe it or not they have Architecture degrees.

  • University of Houston rocks.

    it far out what you can do with an Architecture degree.

    love to see more post what ever wasn't burned.

  • I've had the book on Ant Farm since the late '70s.  It's great to finally see the media burn.

  • I remember seeing this presented at the Milwaukee Art Museum when I was a fairly small child - the effect was profound and lifelong.

  • That you don't get it is exactly the point.

  • What a stupid waste of a classic automobile !! Stupid avant garde shitheads !!

  • I do get it. Got it then, get it now...timeless!

  • "I don't think I want to get it... ha ha." - ktvu news anchor
