Groundhog Day Remix

About

A recursive AV remix project by Sam Meech & Raz Ullah, channeling the spirit of Alvin Lucier through the nightmare of Bill Murray.

On 2nd February 2019, Sam Meech and Raz Ullah celebrated Groundhog Day by watching the film of the same name on VHS. Remixing the video through a series of audio and analogue video interfaces, a new (somewhat degraded) recording of the film was created. This then was played and re-mixed to created a second iteration of the film, and finally, a third and finally remix of this work, producing the beautifully abstracted mess.

I present all three versions here for your enjoyment.

The performance was streamed live at www.twitch.tv/videosmithery

Human-made No record of this work says a model made it. What this means.
