Re: Video feedback using audio!!!

When I was in high school (~1973) I took a TV production class. One thing we were told was "never point the camera into the monitor" like it would cause an explosion or something. One day I tried it and what I discovered became my class project. If you start with the infinite series of television screens, then rotate the camera and play with the f-stop and monitor brightness/contrast while turning off the lights in the room, you can get some really interesting effects, sort of like a lava lamp and kaleidoscope combined. I put about 10-15 minutes of my best stuff together with an electronic music soundtrack. While watching my project, one girl in the class said "I think I'm going to throw up".
