Seven minute video performance by legendary Gordon Mumma, electronic music composer. This rare footage was captured by a 1/2" reel to reel B&W video deck - high -res audio recording was transferred from Gordon's Nagra audio deck.
Video by Denise Gallant - Rob Schafer enginner.
Contact info@video4dvd.com for a high resolution copy of this video. Additional one minute comments at the end from Tom Scribner, historic Santa Cruz Saw Performer.
You should cite the quote you put on the video: "Gordon Mumma was one of the first composers to employ circuitry of his own design in composition and performance..." is found on page 143 of the 7th edition of "New Directions in Music" by David Cope.
Other than that oversight, great post!
