Jeff Mission (b.1963)

Swim


A live video feedback performance by VJ Jeff Mission. The smooth, colorful waves in this piece were generated by chaining together two pieces of equipment - an Edirol V4 video mixer, and a JVC JX-C7 Video Corrector - in a continuous loop, then making incremental adjustments to the settings on the JX-C7. The result is a digital organism, composed of pure feedback, that can be manipulated at will. The technique used in this piece is one of the core components of his live performances.

Boundary Issues (2006)


At a recent experimental video jam, people were invited to play with sound and visuals using a customized control setup. Using a camera, dvd player, video mixer, and a Kaoss Pad, guests were able to trigger and blend sound and images using a simple touch-sensitive interface. With some rhythm and a little practice, this simple A/V instrument can be used by almost anyone. This clip features sound and images from the movie "The Corporation", remixed through the freestyle improvisations of percussionist Eric Freeman.
