Feedback Stroboscopy 1975

Directed by Dominique Belloir · 5 min

1975, the golden age of analog manipulation! In the midst of my fascination with the video feedback effect, the equivalent of the Larsen effect for sound, I generated these soaring images by directly connecting the camera to a video monitor while passing through Marcel Dupouy's Movicolor Synthesizer and following the repetitive rhythm of a composition by Nana de Vasconcelos (with, as a bonus, the blessing of Pierre Barouh and Saravah)! -- Dominique Belloir
