Mars an Optic Aspic
From youtuber electromedia
"Bill Etra's real-time live performance from The Kitchen in 1968 was recorded on Color 16mm film by Woody Vasulka. Woody had that film transferred to DV in 2003, and sent one to Bill. Eventually, Bill gave me a copy of the DV with the hope that I could restore MARS to something similar to its original incarnation. Mars an Optic Aspic was originally performed on 9 B&W monitors, but the 16mm film added some unexpected and welcome color effects that lend themselves to the composition. The choice was made to leave them in. So, this is my restoration (and color correction), with no change to the original sound, and for the first time since the original performance we can see the work in a 9-way split."

Telematic Etra
This is an amazing project
For more information, please visit:

http://www.facebook.com/ProjectEtra
"In Telematic Etra Session #2, Bill Etra narrates a history of tools and instruments created for real time visual performances. Bill has pursued the creation of a "visual piano" and a language for the scoring of visualization compositions for over 4 decades. Along the way he co-invented many devices and techniques, most famously the Rutt/Etra Video Synthesizer. In Telematic Etra 2, Bill will lecture about his and others' inventions and respond to questions from a remote audience via webchat.
Benton-C Bainbridge with Minou Maguna and Bill Etra: Telematic Etra is a series of video chat room discussions with Bill Etra about his lifelong pursuit of “total plasticity of the moving image.” Etra is best known as the co inventor of the Rutt/Etra Video Synthesizer. He has also created other milestone art works, pivotal patents, and collaborations with artists ranging from Steina and Woody Vasulka to Francis Ford Coppola.
Etra’s congenital spinal stenosis has immobilized him and he is rarely able to leave his apartment in the Bronx. Telematic Etra will enable Etra to reach out and educate and inspire the next wave of Visual Music composers, performers, critics and academics. Each session will include both a lecture and a Q&A section, to maximize interaction.
Minou Maguna lives and works in Buenos Aires. Art director and stage direcrot of multimedia performance, exploring new modes of interaction between humans, machines, algorithms and the environment to create art and the poetic. In recent years Maguna has co-created performances of music, opera and experimental musical theater in Argentina and New York, London, Berlin, Rome, Singapore, Brazil, Colombia and Peru.
Benton-C Bainbridge is an artist, designer and educator based in the Bronx. Bainbridge makes movies, installations, and live visual performances with custom digital, analog and optical systems of his own design. He has presented video as immersive environments and extemporaneous compositions across 5 continents, collaborating with scores of artists around the world.

Reading a Wave
Today I when to see Reading a Wave an exhibition of video and film work (involving sculpture and installation as well) at the Woodmill gallery and studios in Bermondsey
The show was interesting and features archive footage of the Rutt/Etra Video Synthesizer and a work by duo Lovid as well as many other interesting things!
press release:
"23.06.2010 – 25.07.2010
Private view: 23.06.2010 19:00 – 21:00
‘Reading a wave’ brings together a selection of works that consider the physical nature of film. It looks at the way that artists have addressed film as a sculptural proposition; through a formal investigation of its intrinsic properties and as a material embodiment of gestures or actions. The exhibition highlights the moments of performance that are implied by the use of physical process to create the film itself, these are set in relation to pieces that use film and video as a way of sculpting and staging space. By weaving together contemporary work with a selection of more historical explorations of the technologies and techniques of film-making the show articulates an experimental, non-narrative engagement with the moving image that is continuously influential.
Exhibition includes works by Lis Rhodes, Tony Hill, Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, Torsten Lauschmann, LoVid, Anabel Nicolson, Laura Buckley, Haroon Mirza, Dave Maclean & George Barber."
