Week Fourteen

HOMEWORK:

– Continue to work on the final project. Due in next class.

– As promised, I’ve added a bonus tutorial introducing you to Video Synthesis and getting started using Lumen, a software video synthesizer for Mac. The tutorial is located in the tutorials section of the class site.

– Before you get started download and install Lumen
– If you want to record the output you can use Syphon Recorder

– The history of video synthesis, sound art and electronic music from the 1960’s forward share a rich, collaborative history as seen in the short documentary below.

– Check out California Images – Hi-Fi for the Eyes. This is a rare 80’s VHS compilation of collaborations between electronic musicians and video artists using analog video synthesizers. Download or Watch Here.
