  • I watched Limbo while I was in the Nikolais company in about 1978. I'm sure their archives (now at Ohio State University) still has it.  I believe it was done for the BBC, which would probably have it too. The company appeared several times on the Steve Allen show, and I think that was where Nik first developed his use of blue screen.

  • I remember back in the early 60's, He did a piece for televison called"Limbo", which used video techniques like blue screen and Moog synthesizeed music. Does anyone remember it! I was mesmerized by it. I remember recording the music but vcrs were not in exsistance yet. Does anybody know if a film of it still exsists?

  • I watched 3 of these Byron Woods episodes. I like the intro and closing remarks and the short clips. It's a great format, and educational. Thanks.
