Phillip came over one night in January with some audio equipment. The black lines are Phillip’s audio signal plugged into one of the video inputs of my Panasonic WJ-MX12 video mixer. I did some video mixing with Phillip’s audio signal and an S-Video feedback loop as video source. This was all improvised and recorded direct to HDD in real time.

Thanks Jeff!  Have been wanting to share this for a while but Vimeo was being a brat about uploading.  Imagine opening an audio file as a video file and processing it with a series of effects, exporting as an audio file and running it through some effects and then re-opening as video.  Now do this in real-time and add feedback paths in the video and audio processing chains.  This is a hardware based example of treating signal formats unconventionally, the quick and dirty way of making sound visual and sonifying the moving image.
