Sähkö The Movie (1995)

ミカ・ヴァイニオの死は電子音楽界に大きな衝撃を与えた。彼が所属した Pan Sonic やレーベル Sähkö の最盛期を捉えた幻の映像作品「Sähkö The Movie」は、1995年にJimi Tenorが16mmで撮影したドキュメント。スタジオ制作、手作業のレコードプレス、轟音でありながら繊細なライブなど、DIY精神あふれる活動の姿が描かれる。

The #SinclairQL sound system is really pretty bonkers. Documentation is vague and even the explainers I've found are missing stuff while some others are trying to guess. At least in an emulator one can create quite odd results by giving values which don't follow the guidelines.

What was fun was that one command created sound akin to a tune by #Ø, while adding another parameter resulted in a #noise tune by #PanSonic. Awesome!

Too bad it's only 1 channel...

My Old Underwater Camera Set-Up

Before 2020, I used a Sealife camera for primary photographs and captured video with a GoPro. I typically used the Gopro Hero 8 Black during the day and the Gopro Hero 4 Silver at night or on macro focused dives.

The picture above shows my old Sealife and Gopro Hero 6. After the image was taken, I upgraded to the Gopro Hero 8. The above photography was taken while scuba diving off the Oman Aggressor by Shaker Mohamed, Cruise Director.

When shooting smaller subjects, I used Backscatter’s Flip Filters 55mm +15 MacroMate Mini and a Gopro. I do not use this combination since I purchased the Panasonic GH5. For lighting, I typically use two (2500 lumen) video lights which has remained constant between the old and new systems.

• Sealife DC2000
• Gopro
  • Hero 8 Black (PolarPro DiveMaster 3-Pack Filter Kit)
  • Hero 4 Silver (Backscatter Flip Filter Kit)
• Sealife Dragon Universal Flash
• Sealife Flex-Connect  Dual Tray, Flex Arms

Feel to message with any questions about the various underwater camera system I have used.
