the Roland/Edirol V8 analog video mixer and Camera feedback

a sort of rambling attempt at explaining video feedback. things just kind of spiraled out of control and i also filmed this spontaneously around 2 am! in this video i dive into the menu settings, specifically the mirroring modes, to show examples of how different effects affect camera feedback. the results are, as usual, mind numbingly hypnotizing.

"I didn't expect that"
"I can't even do a video without getting my mind blown"
"How is it even possible?!"
"This should be illegal"
Haha love this video! What are your thoughts on the V-8 verses the V-4 mixer? I need to get one of my own

[Raynaputi]

I don't know anything about any of these things you're doing, but I'm here. This is amazing. It reminds me of a mirror effect.

I love how you get distracted by the visuals mid sentence.
very cool stuff.

[zerzillin]

Wow just wow. Always wanted to do visuals but did not find the right device. The stuff you do with this gave me goosebumps several times, some stuff even looked like the patterns I saw as a small kid when I rubbed my eyes for hours, didn't know they exist outside my head.

wtf like three bots just commented on this in the first 5 minutes of this upload at 3AM what is going on with youtube i keep seeing so many more bots in the comments lately

I used to get high by doing this myself, using keying between to channels with different effects is even more mad and harsh... then putting some lzx stuff in the loop and we approching dmt effects... cheer's!

insane....i was thinking about getting a V4/V8 for a while now but this video rlly made me pull the trigger

[gengraded]

I think this was the first video I ever saw of yours. I remember being entranced by the natural feedback on the projector. Finally got my Edirol V4. Appreciate it all, I don't think I would have even started if it weren't for stumbling upon your channel back in the day. Strange loops abound.

Damn, way to show me exactly why this is the machine I want in my life. Thankya so much!

[NateHorn]

Dabbled with glitch art in the past but am trying to get into video synthesis at the moment - really enjoying your videos they're super useful

[pongtrometer]

3:00 Love the lava lamp video feedback . Cool overview too 👾

[boxenergy]

Want more gear like this! Thanks for the walkthrough

[muzzybearr]

the flashbacks are real

just got my v4 in the mail today and im so excited to experiment

[scandalousbeans]

i love that you just accept that there is no talking anymore

[nunzioturtulici]

Well, I guess it's the same process happening in many fractals. You have a generative function which you iterate on an object. Really interesting. Thanks ;)

[bbqchickenwingsofredemptio]

More feedback vids, this is what getting me into video glitch. Basing everything what I'm learning and getting off of you. Thanks for your vids, I watch em more than once 🔂, their not irreverent

[TrustsLiars]

I found your channel a week ago, and now you've inspired me to do this. Big ups man.

[archivesofstarless]

hands down the coolest thing ever. deeply inspiring video here. the second i saw the part at 5:49 I was like, I gotta do this. I've experimented with the concept in Unity and having this in one's room is next level to me. is there a projector involved? this kind of thing would be a dream come true to experiment with.

[originalman]

Wow I really like this one the negative + mirror 😱

“Video feedback changed my life”
I know exactly what you mean. The more you think about what’s happening, the crazier it gets.
