When I was in northern california in th mid 90's I met him and he gave me a few of his papers. He had a pretty amazing rig that allowed centering a camera and rotating on the lens axis to create some very controlled video feedback experiments. <a href="http://cse.ucdavis.edu/~chaos/chaos/pubs/stdvf-title.html" title rel="nofollow"> <a href="http://www.videofeedback.dk/pics/crutchfield/crutchfield.html" title rel="nofollow"> This guy James crutchfield did some very scientific studies of video feeedback.

I don't know anyone who has finished a Hofstadter book. Wasn't there some sort of logical arguement about how you could get half-way through the book, and then half-way through the second half, ..., and you can never finish! Ha!

I'm gonna check that book out as soon as a finish G.E.B. ha! I utilize a lot of feedback mechanisms in the music I am creating lately too. the way that those minute adjustments spiral into new, complex, patterns provides a nice metaphor for how we develop in relation to habitual activities and iterative perceptions, and how we, as big, slow, feedback mechanisms can apply similar ideas to our lives to influence our behavioral patterns.

I like using creative signal routings and video correction devices to modulate the signal - one of the beautiful things about working with feedback is the way that small adjustments have a ripple effect that iterates over time. Here are a couple of links - one older, one new: <a href="http://www.archive.org/details/VJ_Mission_Swim" rel="nofollow">Swim </a>- hardware feedback through an Edirol V4 and a JVC JX-C7 video corrector. <a href="http://www.beatfix.com/entranced/" rel="nofollow">Entranced</a> - camera feedback, modulated with a V4, JX-C7, and a Korg Kaoss Entrancer.
