Bjørn Erik Haugen [se] - Regress, 3:00, 2008

Regress is a video where I have converted a video to a soundpiece, then I have made a program that interprets audio to video. The has aduration of three minutes. The soundpiece is a result of a long study of conversion of images to sound. The intention is to make the conversion as clean, and digital as possible, to find images and patterns that have a caracteristic sound or sound interesting.
When interpreting the soundtrack to video, I intend to go to the core or basis of what video is, light from a screen projected onto the viewer. This aggressive syncronized flickering uses both the basis and the limits of the videoformat, black and white, flickering 25 frames a second that is the limit of a TV/videoformat.
