Electronic music pioneer Suzanne Ciani has a new retrospective CD out, Lixiviation.
This vintage video, taken from the Omni television show, takes a look at her sound design work in the 80’s for the Xenon pinball game.
Host Peter Ustinov’s narration hasn’t aged too gracefully, but the video offers a rare view into Ciani and her work during this time period.
i enjoyed that, i never thought about the sounds that were being made from the pinball machine, i just always took it for granted that it all worked.
Nice vid
That’s one cool chick in my book.
I´ve never heard about here before now, thanks this post! Found lots of good stuff on youtube with her, this being the best one: http://youtu.be/4593D44Lid4 What an amazing vibe going on in that studio!
About the only thing that has “aged gracefully” is Ustinov’s narration.
