Re: Video Looping video art etc....
Hey!
http://www.audiovisualizers.com/toolshak/vidsynth/sherman/sherman.htm
That was my college video/media professor! Great guy.
Very interesting and amazingly knowledgable. This
post me miss my crazy college video days...
Anyone hear of the Creamery in upstate NY? Really
cool video co-op. I went to a party there and I swear
there had to be 50 cameras and 6 video toasters
running with amazing visuals being produced live.
Good times. It was halloween and I was a blank
raster. (white sweats I speckled with a sharpie and a
transistor radio tuned in between stations in my
pants)
