Geez, when people see colors and relatively wacky things do they always have to make some really stupid drug reference?

Wtf do you know about how Bowie is about ANYTHING?! And if you had ANY experience with getting ripped off on something you created, I'm certain you would be what you call "anal" about it!

What a douche you are.

Could you tell me where I can get the original? I cannot find this clip anywhere, except on a Klaus Nomi documentary that featured the SNL appearance.

sorry, but i burst out laughing after the pause

This is a pitch shift coupled with off tempo delays. And tons of color, which the world really needs right now.

oh dude. i'm afraid.

Very nice, my friend! It reminds me a lot of my first Music Video attempt way back when, using all analog equipment, and an analog Time Base Corrector to get the funny colors. Actually I recorded myself lipsynching Lou Reed into a flexible venitian blind that had a perfect mirror surface and bent it around while a TV set in the background showed Video Feedback..then through the equipment I made it this posterized, lightly strobed, sepia mess...it was a thing of beauty! I wish I still had it!
