vt from DISCOSPHERE by John Oswald
(1973) The television snow field was made lumpy by resonant frequencies and angles in camera/monitor feedback loops with further modulations interpolated by video mixer keying in real-time improvisations to an evolving swarm of electronic sound, excerpted here. It was subsequently used as one of several layers of elements in the disembowelment overture to "Baryshnikov".

Oswald is best known as the the creator of the Plunderphonics genre, an appropriative form of recording studio creation which he began unfolding in the late ’60’s. This got him in trouble with, and also garnered invites from major record labels and musical icons.
