    Lemon Hed Vol 1

    As you might have heard on RC 346, I am really into sample collage and vapourwave ambience at the moment – in big part because of Departure and the record label she co-runs with Lav Kazan. I blogged about them before but recently they released their first compilation – an easy way to get a…

  • Video Will Eat Itself?

    Video Will Eat Itself?

    I suppose I should be honoured – plagiarism is the sincerest form of flattery, and this is the first time my video work has been ‘sampled’ to my knowledge, but to use nearly 50% of my video in another video with no credit?

  • The grandaddy of VJing – Len Lye

    The grandaddy of VJing – Len Lye

    Years ago I bemoaned the lack of the amazing animator and grandaddy of all VJIng and music video animation on DVD, getting a response from Roger Horrocks that the Len Lye Foundation and the New Zealand Film Archive were working on it…well several years later it slips out unbeknown to me on Re:Voir, and you…
