This stunning piece was based on video images of a walk around Woody's childhood home in Moravia, recorded on an early Portapak video camera. These images were processed later using the Rutt/Etra video synthesizer, a machine developed by video pioneers Bill Etra and Steve Rutt. The result is a very realistic original soundtrack, clashing in an amazing way with the completely synthetic universe evoked in the images.
