| Funky Town by Lipps Inc. Remixed with Old Computer Equipment (Funkytown) |
 |
This is my video response to James Houston's
remix of Radiohead's Nude. I decided to try
my own version with Funkytown by Lipps Inc.
I only used computers from the early 1980's
that were destined for the Junk Yard and this
is how I got the idea for JunkyTown. I also
used a modem but DTMF tones are lousy for
musical notes (no harmonics) but I was very
lucky to find two notes that did sound good.
On your phone punch in 3 3 2 3 and you got
the beginning part of the solo and the rest
is history. Please note no synthesizer or
audio effects were used and all the audio was
recorded from a microphone or direct line.
Some of the audio was amplified when it was
mixed down because the levels were too low
ie. the printer and modem. The Commodore 64
was used for the main Bass and Guitar. The
Ti-99/4A was used for the second part of the
solo because of the limitation of DTMF tones.
It was tempting to just sample the modem but
I did not in order to keep it 100% original.
It was difficult to video tape the printer
because it kept shaking the table so I looped
the printer video in the begining of the
video. The printer sometimes caused the
harddrive head to shake out of sync so I
inserted a screw into the mechinism and this
some what helped.
90% of the work was put into the audio and
very little effort was put into the video and
I think this did affect the overall results.

Using the resources of the Brain Research
Center at UCLA, this film illustrates the
development of neuroscience, from its
reliance on information from brain injuries
and from autopsies, through to new insights
discovered with electronic micro-scopes, EEG
equipment, PET scans and MRI machines. These
new means of exploring the brain have
broadened and deepened the extent of
research; each has its own uses and
methodologies which are elaborated in the
film. Throughout DISCOVERING THE HUMAN BRAIN:
NEW PATHWAYS TO NEUROSCIENCE, examples of
actual research that utilize current
technology are presented, including a study
on the role of mirror neurons in autism and
the mapping of language areas of a patient
prior to surgery on a brain tumor. Thus, this
film provides students with an understanding
of the methodology and power of current
research in neuroscience.With Susan
Bookheimer, Ph.D.
