Rotary Signal Emittor: Zoetrope-esque picture disc LP

David Pescovitz 10:46 am Mon Jan 17, 2011

The Rotary Signal Emittor is a strange and marvelous Zoetrope-style picture disc LP by the multimedia performance group Sculpture (musician Dan Hauhurst and animator Reuben Sutherland). The video above gives the feel of a Rotary Signal Emittor live event, described as such:

Sutherland ‘DJs’ with home-made zoetropic discs, intricate concentric rings of illustrated frames, projecting fragments of looping images at 33, 45 and 78 rpm – pre-Edisonian imaging technology combined with a digital video camera.

Hayhurst deploys prepared audio material (found tapes, lo-fi electronics, computer programming, and analogue noise) across 1â„4” tape loops, hardware sampler, cassette walkman and CDJ deck.
