Chops from Tyler Kinney and Andy Martrich

Tyler Kinney has sent me some interesting projects he has been working on.

In his words

"they are a collaboration with Andy Martrich, he writes the words and creates the sound. I generate the video using a fed-back video mixer. And then some keying and editing."


check out his channel here for some more interesting videos

Chirp -1

Here is another video that utilizes a Quantel DPE 5000, created in 1979 with Video and audio by Dean WInkler, Glenn Van Alstyne, Tom Lucke, Elaine Lewis, and Brian Aitchison.

check out Dean WInklers amazing youtube channel here for work that incorporates video effects and techniques from pre digital era right on through to early computer graphics and beyond

the breadth and range of the work is very impressive



from Dean in reply to someone's question on youtube
"This was created in two separate effects passes: An old porno tape was processed using a Serge modular music synthesizer to sequence the sounds and control the colorization of a Hern video synthesizer (both analog). The sounds are also inserted into the video, which are the stripes you see, changing with frequency. The tape from the first pass was used to seed an analog feedback loop around a Quantel 5000 digital effects device. Sorry, I have no clue what an AfterEfx plug-in equivalent is :-)"

U.S. A.P.E. 'Ignorance is Bliss' Video

here is a video from 1978 watch out for the advance (for the time) video effects at the end using a The Quantel DPE 5000 and early digital video effects that would later be followed by the hugely popular paint box

VIDEO KALEIDOSCOPES

here are some interesting machanical/optical video Kaleidoscopes from galaxyglassworks all motorized with composite video outputs 















some of these are one of a kind or small production runs

the "INDUSTRIAL POP" at $1200 seems pricey but if you compare these to custom other hand made electro mechanical devices it's not to crazy 












"SCANDINAVIAN" the more complex at $2000.00
