The Emergency Broadcast Network was a multimedia project formed in 1991 by Rhode Island School of Design grads Joshua Pearson, Gardner Post, and Brian Kane. The EBN created music videos out of remixed video footage, usually sourced from television or file footage, with added instrumental accompaniment. Formed in response to the Persian Gulf War, EBN's videos were politically charged, often railing against the US military-industrial complex in videos such as "Weapons," though they also dealt with the manipulative effects of American mass media, such as in "Comply".

EBN's first project was a remix of footage from the Gulf War, which was an underground hit, largely via bootleg copies passed around by fans. The group gave out tapes at Lollapalooza in 1991, which further increased their underground popularity. The group ultimately released two full albums, Commercial Entertainment Product in 1992, and Telecommunication Breakdown in 1995. They were also hired for their video effects work on several occasions in the '90s, including collaborations with U2 and the MTV Video Music Awards.

One constant of EBN's career was about pushing the boundaries of technology in media. While not the first commercial use of digital video editing methods, the technology was still in its infancy at the time, and the EBN is possibly the first to use the technology in a subversive manner.
