520 "Video 50 is an extraordinary video sketchbook, a highly
original, visually dramatic and frequently humorous
collection of one hundred abbreviated "episodes" produced
for television. Unfolding as a series of thirty-second
vignettes, this enigmatic essay in style is characterized
by a deadpan theatricality, symbolist imagery, surrealist
juxtapositions and repetition of key visual motifs.
Indelible images, precisely composed -- a man teetering
above a waterfall, a floating chair, a winking eye, a
parrot against the New York skyline -- are accompanied by
an "architectural" sound score that includes spoken
"phonetic patterns" rather than words. Fusing his
surprising visual logic and rhythms with unexpected
temporal manipulations, Wilson creates a work of startling
wit and poetry"--www.eai.org

04/13; Major picture break up throughout; a stable image
would appear intermittently; perhaps the tape needs to be
cleaned or perhaps restored; audio level is very low; tape
seems to play best in PAL mode but standard cannot be
confirmed because of the constant picture break up
