The Bible, The Bullet, & The Synesthesia

In 1990, armed with a couple of VCRs and a couple of cassette decks, Charles Goff III began experimenting with combining ordinary television images with Taped Rugs recordings. The result was a crude and very Dadaist two hour video that was never really distributed and shown to only a handful of unsuspecting victims. This excerpt combines images from an M&Ms ad, a Green Hornet episode, a Real Cheese ad, and a gun show promo with two audio pieces created by Herd Of The Ether Space. "Synesthesia" (from the cassette: "Chaos Marches On") features sounds mixed around a Time/Life record about LSD and "The Bible And The Bullet" (from the cassette: "Dada's Little Psycho") features an improvised tale about the American Wild West.
