Doravideo

This guy (Doravideo) is incredible:


I think he's using a Max/MSP and Jitter based program to create his drum triggered loops. However he does it, it's incredibly interesting to hear the accidental melodies created with the audio from his primarily culturally based found footage. It's also not often a solo performer can pull of something like this that will keep your attention, which he does. His website does a good job of describing the movement of his performances: "Like hammer blows and alternating at the speed of light between play, fast rewind, forward or pause". This is like a live version of our last project!

Here's Doravideo+New Order!



He's in the Guiness Book of World records as well!
"The DVD released in July of this year, 'DoraVideo Volume 1', managed to violate every imaginable law, committing copyright infringement, slander, indecent exposure, has been awarded a spot in the Guiness Book of World Records for offensiveness, and went out of print just before release./ When the DVD was released, one could say it was a study of copyright infringement, slander, and indecent exposure, being successful at very nearly violating all of these rules, and is a product which offers a very strange sense of satisfaction."
From his record label's website which also contains his very interesting biography
