About

One of the earliest minimalist video with flicker effects was produced as a pair piece in Tokyo in early 1970s. First, a chair with its shadow flickers while synchronizing with white noise on a TV monitor. Second, another flickering video with eyes, which super-impose the positive over the negative, open and close rapidly. At the same time the "blind" effects of video fast-forwarding accelerates/decelerates the picture synchronized with the sound. –T. I.
