The video for "Language Is a Virus," from Laurie's 1986 film, 'Home of the Brave,' is now on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1eTSL2kopP4 She says: "Dedicated to William S. Burroughs, who said, 'Language is a virus from outer space.' What a wild thing for a writer to say, that language is a disease communicated by mouth. And now that we know that virus is also a language, it makes even more sense that word codes are hard to crack." | Laurie Anderson

The series of PSAs Laurie made for her 1989 album, 'Strange Angels,' are now on YouTube: https://youtu.be/wCfGKXJ5iRk "Instead of doing a music video starring myself dancing around and looking cool I decided to do a series of public service announcements about things that were on my mind—military spending, the national debt, equal rights. They had zero to do with any of the songs on the record. Oddly, Warners totally accepted them. They even promoted them." | Laurie Anderson
