Title link takes you to the orginal shot pulled from this auction.

Title link takes you the Video Synthesizers Homage Page which walks you through video synthesis over the years. Some of these are huge modular systems. The Buchla Electric Music Box is also listed for video synthesis. "The Electric Music Box can be configured to serve a variety of applications, including electronic music composition and performance, music education, psychoacoustic studies, environmental control, special effects generation, bio-feedback research, and video synthesis. "

Edirol Video Synth

I haven't thought much about video synthesis but this shot sparks my interest. Kicking back and playing video on my laptop while sequencing sounds just seems like it would be fun. Via Sonic State.

Devo Rehearsal Video

Title link takes you there. Not much to see as far as synths go, but definitely a bit to hear especially at the end.

Free Moog Sonic Infinity DVD

Apparently Moog Music is launching a "Sonic Infinity" ad campaign and part of it is a free DVD. You send them your address and they'll send you the DVD free. Title link takes you there.

"Moog Launches Sonic Infinity Ad Campaign

Sonic Infinity
This past December Moog launched a new ad campaign that you will see throughout the year... Sonic Infinity.

The campaign is designed to create awareness among non-Moog users that our gear is only limited by their imagination.

The first ad appeared in the December issue of Keyboard. The ad offered a new "Sonic Infinity" DVD featuring Moog Clinician and Product Development Consultant, Brian Kehew. The DVD was filmed at Asheville's premier night spot, The Orange Peel, where Brian conducted a Moog Clinic.

If you would like a copy of the DVD, they are free. Simply email sonic@moogmusic.com with your name and mailing address.

The campaign theme will be supported at both the Winter NAMM and the upcoming Musik Messe in Frankfurt as well as in Moog ads throughout the year. "

Update: Via ortho in the comments: "oh shit don't miss the other video on the page of HH and the Headhunters...towards the end Herbie whips out some Odyssey chops that are smokin. He ends it settin up the wind-whoosh sound that i think he's secretly controlling with a foot pedal. HOTT"
