Beatles Electroniques [1969]

admin — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 05:25:12 +0000

Video created by Nam June Paik & Jud Yalkut at WGBH television studios in Boston, MA in 1969. WGBH was a hub for early video experimenters in the late 1960s & early 1970s. In this video, Beatles footage is “Wobbulated” as part of a larger broadcast project by Paik called Video Commune (Beatles From Beginning To End). Sound by Ken Werner is stunning & especially to know that digital samplers were not used or yet available. Any thoughts or insights re: this far-out groundbreaking material?? Enjoy & check out early btw2worlds Paik post here!

Thanks to DIGITAL PRODUCTIONS, the world received some beautiful & forward-thinking computer animations in the early/mid 1980s. Posted here is the company’s demo reel from 1984 [you must love the SMPTE leader intro], along with the zany music video they helped to create for the Mick Jagger song “Hard Woman” circa 1985/6. Other popular DP productions include the animated portions from The Last Starfighter and Labyrinth films. Thanks Digital Productions & Cray X-MP supercomputer – it’s incredible the amount of skill, time, effort & determination [&$$] that went into DP animations!

While we don’t feature very much 21st century technology here at btw2worlds, we couldn’t resist posting this wonderful quickstart video. Roger Linn walks us through the basic functions & features of the new Tempest machine from Dave Smith Instruments. This video is very enjoyable (even with your eyes closed) & the machine is top notch. Any first hand Tempest users out there care to comment?

Jack Kevorkian Video Series [198?]

admin — Wed, 31 Aug 2011 02:06:25 +0000

Who produced this wonderful video featuring Jack Kevorkian & what equipment might have been used? The audio & video production techniques are imaginative & his messages are very interesting (and plainly conveyed). Did you know Dr. Kevorkian was also talented musician & composer?? Maybe he worked out the featured synthesizer music & FX within…

Take some time to view thru these ZYKLUS promo recordings (especially if your last name ends in A-T-H), you likely won’t regret it. Pretty advanced approach to MIDI sequencing for 1988! Any experience with the Zyklus hardware out there? Link here for detailed information. Special thanks to AnalogyGuy for posting these videos up.
