THESIS >>> VIDEO IN THE ABYSS - I don't think I ever posted my research on Video Feedback in historical and contemporary artist practice. Well here it is! http://videointheabyss.smeech.co.uk - a great way to discover the origins of video feedback and also how it can be integrated with digital tools for installation and performance.
I see a lot more people working with analogue video feedback today than when I published this work, and I think it's partly a renewed interest in older analogue video and DV formats, first and foremost by young people. This goes hand in hand with sharing on instagram and the increasing availability of video synthsis and glitch hardware.
