"A live dance performance utilizing live image processing. The audience saw a dance as it was recorded, processed, and projected in real time." -ET

"This video was recorded live in "real time". The audience saw the dancer and cameraman (me) on stage. The output of the camera went to a special computer controlled frame buffer (256x240 resolution) that I built. My assistant Richard Greene controlled the pre-programmed effects. The output of the frame buffer was projected live, and was captured to video." -ET

"This work was recorded during a live performance (1985) in front of an audience. It was created with custom built hardware and software in "real time" using a single b/w live camera input. The props used were retro-reflective sticks and wrist bands that were "waved" or "manipulated" [...] The music "Hikari" was not performed live. We worked live to the prerecorded track by Maggi Payne. She created it specifically for these performances." -ET
