VinylVideo™
by Gebhard Sengmüller, in cooperation with Martin Diamant,
Günter Erhart and Best Before. (AT)
VinylVideo™ is a new and wondrous development in the history
of audio-visual media. For the first time in the history of technological
invention, VinylVideo™ makes possible the storage of video
(moving image plus sound) on analog LP records. Playback from the
VinylVideo™ Picture Disk is made possible with a normal turntable,
a special conversion box (the VinylVideo™ Home Kit) and a TV
set. In its combination of analog and digital elements, VinylVideo™
is a relic of fake media archeology. With the extremely reduced
picture and sound quality and the easy manipulation of the time
axis, a new mode of audio-visual perception evolves. In this way,
VinylVideo™ reconstructs a home movie medium as a missing link
in the history of moving image. At "Interface Explorer",
we present the first record ever produced for this new system: the
VinylVideo™ Infomercial.
