Nam June Paik T.V. Bra Charlotte Moorman 1975 Swatch video. See a really unusual combination of TV, bra and cello. From old Swatch Art website; check out http://swatch.home.pages.de
i was wrong. in the Anja Osswald shot analysis of Global Groove (Moorman scene)it is written that the abstract picture shapes are produced by eletronic stimuli from the tv cello strings.
tv bra and tv cello are great, but i've never saw it working the way paik describes it in his texts - the cello sound is supposed to modulate the tv image
I caught a few of her shows back in the 70s, in Greenwich Village NY, and Washington Square park. One of my favorite acts of hers was her creation of music. She Layed on the bar under a sheet with her cello on her stomach she projected her shadow on the wall and it looked like a woman giving birth, you had to be there. I loved her shows, she was outrageous.

Saw Ms. Moorman perform "TV Bra" in reprise at a Nam June Paik exhibition at the Whitney in 1983.Outrageous and memorable - timeless!
