580 Stunden VHS in 5 Minuten // Video-Experiment von Bob Jaroc

Bob Jaroc schreibt zu seinem Experiment: „A while back, I would obsessively record things off the TV and collect films from film fairs, shops and car boot sales – this film represents a third of the quest to digitise that collection….around 580 hrs of dropped frames, filled hard drives and distracting ingesting chugging away in the corner of my studio. The constant in the tapes is me, its as good a self portrait as I’m going to make at the moment. Some of the tapes are old favourites, some I have never watched until they went in, and some I still have no clue as to what is on them. I often would set the recorder going at the start of a film and then go to bed and pass out, the tape stopping automatically when it would run out. As a result many of the tapes have a whole heap of footage recorded after the thing I wanted had finished, resulting in a single channel blind trawl of late night night programming (a lot of ceefax and oracle) The 580hrs contained in this video are destined to meet their 1160 brothers and sisters in an installation planned to run over […]

Weird Simpsons VHS Intro // by Yoann Hervo

Yoann Hervo´s Tribut an die Simpsons zum 25. Jahrestag der ersten ausgestrahlten Folge ist eines der trippigsten Intros ever! Da kann höchstens Banksy´s düstere Version des Simpsons-Intros mithalten. This opening is just a small part of a collaboration project made up by Charles Huettner, Ivan Dixon and James Hatley. The original idea was to invite some animators to produce, in their own style, a short story in the Simpsons universe. Despite the fact that the project hasn’t been achieved, I wanted to finish what I started. Relativ verspulte „Couch Gags“ gab´s bei den Simpsons natürlich schon des Öfteren – hier sind 8 weitere künstlerisch angehauchte Intros: The 8 Best Artist Recreations Of The Simpsons‘ Intro Couch Gag » via Boing Boing
