Analogue v Digital (part 2)

Not just in photography but in music it has gone from analogue to digital, vinyl records to digital MP3's. But There is one exception, dance music such as "Drum and Bass" and "Dubstep" is produced digitally on computers but then put to a vinyl (analogue) format.


In Benga's latest video a reconstruction of the waveform of the track which would appear on a computer screen when being produced. The video uses 960 vinyl all cut to size to create the wave and photographed after each vinyl is placed into order. Using stopmotion instead of CGI or other visual effects gives a more real feel to the video and obviously alot of time went into it.
