Subject: 30 Minutes of Live Looping
Videos!
Hello all -
Finally!!! I have some live looping videos
to share. :) On September 28, a producer at a local public access TV
station shot me looping live in their studio. My 30 minute performance (4
songs) will be aired on the station for a program called "Boise City
Limits". After hours and hours of tedious and agonizing S-VHS to DVD to
.MPG to .WMV video conversion, and from 2.5 Gigabytes down to 45 MB, I now have
the four songs available on the Zed:

Song Title: Quiddity
URL: http://zed.cbc.ca/action.ZeD?POS=22&action=watch&CONTENT_ID=188100&type=acquisitionCMS&FILTER_KEY=228702
Notes:
A variation of a song I improvised for my next CD, "1/6"; sort of menacing and
dark; the producer was obviously fascinated by my stereo EDPs, because at about
2:18 the camera pans in on both of them, and you can see the digits cruising and
the functions changing.
Song Title: Alice in Cyberspace
URL: http://zed.cbc.ca/action.ZeD?POS=24&action=watch&CONTENT_ID=188107&type=acquisitionCMS&FILTER_KEY=228702
Notes:
Spontaneously composed on the spot in the TV studio; weird and abstract, but my
favorite; for you jazzers out there, see if you can recognize two of the melody
quotes about 6:15 minutes into the song, one of which I used to title the song;
remember those intense, finger stretch jazz chords I shared with the group a few
weeks ago? I'm using some of those starting at 5:27
Song Title:
Off-Centered Blue
URL: http://zed.cbc.ca/action.ZeD?POS=23&action=watch&CONTENT_ID=188102&type=acquisitionCMS&FILTER_KEY=228702
Notes:
Spontaneously composed on the spot in the TV studio; I have an infatuation with
the concept of blue, hence the title of this song and one of songs on my prior
CD, "Impossible Shade of Blue"; the producer also added a blue shade of light on
me while I was playing
Song Title: Slipstream
URL: http://zed.cbc.ca/action.ZeD?POS=24&action=watch&CONTENT_ID=188096&type=acquisitionCMS&FILTER_KEY=228702
Notes:
A variation of an improvised song played live at a local festival; the more
melodic of the four songs
All in all, they did a fairly decent job on the
videos, surprisingly so because in addition to one full-time seasoned camera
man, there were two newbie film students who had very little experience with the
equipment. The producer was able to adapt to this in the studio by giving them
instructions over their headsets and switching camera inputs as they came into
his master recorder. The cool thing is that the TV station did all this
for me for NO CHARGE, and as a result I have a nice promotional DVD. Can't
complain about
this!!!
Cheers,
