Grahame Weinbren.  Where have I seen that name?  Ah, here: At the Edge of Art, by Joline Blais and Jon Ippolito (Thames and Hudson, 2006), p. 33.  The authors call their thinking edge studies.  It's an excellent book (and mentions Pip, p. 161, in relation to Olia Lialina's Last Real Net Art

If this is off topic, I apologize. I've a friend who is a documentary filmmaker in NYC, and she needs to transfer some HI-8 tapes, and her camera is eating the tapes. Any suggestions for someone to check out the camera or other suggestions for a deck to transfer the footage? Thanks in

Best best is a new deck. Digital 8 decks and cams are newer and easier to find, and will work with 8 and Hi8 (8 works in hi8 decks but not nec. vice-versa). Your local video art co-op or whatever should have cheap access to some sort of video8 gear. Look inside the tape door with a

I would call a place like DCTV (Downtown Community Television) or MNN (Manhattan Neighborhood Network) and see whether they have any hi-8 decks still in use. CC On Wed, Oct 3, 2012 at 12:31 PM, Steven ste...@gladstonefilms.com wrote: If this is off topic, I apologize. I've a friend who is a

Be careful of the Digital-8 camcorders. I never knew anyone who had a digital camcorder who didn't have a broken digital 8 camcorder. If Jeff says they give good results when working, I absolutely take his word for it. But caveat emptor when buying a used one, and don't pay too much. A lot of

On a related note, any clues on getting a tape out of an old hi-8 camcorder without taking it apart? The thing went kaput on me. Still has power, just the gate won't release tape. I bought another on Craigslist and is working great, but still have tape stuck in the old one. Thanks ahead of time...
