This is nice. Like it a lot. Neat to watch the video elements, edited into the piece to give it the old timey feel that originated in the 1970's. The best part is at exactly 1:00 min in, where it looks like he could have some video feedback running behind him, or something that looks like it. Reminds me of Skip Sweeney and his video, "Illuminatin' Sweeney", where you can catch him doing some live feedback at a space called Video Free America in San Francisco in 1975. Nothing like it, so it's precious when you can see it. For those hardcore fans, go to: 5 minutes into the film:
and you can see that it really gets interesting here. It's when you can see the artist doing his work. His rif is complete when we see his hands on the camera at 7:32. The moog is tantamount in understanding how video feedback works to pull the viewer into a trance, but Skip has some really cool feedback set to the Beach Boys too. Skip also does live feedback when he's at the office so check it out when you come to the homepage, http://videofreeamerica.com/site/
