Cult Shot On VHS Public Access Variety Show 30 MINUTES OF MADNESS Gets Revisited with the Full Length Feature Documentary 20 YEARS OF MADNESS! A Most Excellent In-Depth Interview with Main Brain Jerry White, Jr!

When Jerry White, Jr. and a few of his friends first started filming their backyard hijinks with a VHS camcorder in the early 90s, they had little idea that it would be the basis for one of the most significant times in their lives. 30 Minutes of Madness is a cult variety show that ran through the early to mid-90s on Public Access. It’s largely shot-on-video, chock full of low-brow humor, non-sequitur and all kinds of experimental antics, created by a counter-culture collective consisting of self-proclaimed outsider artists from Michigan. These shot-on-video skits contain improvisational entertainment that just drip with...

Ontario Videovore Ben Ruffett Offers Up Obscure VHS Screenings with Hamilton’s Trash Cinema and Contributes Some of His Analog Expertise to the Upcoming VIDEONOMICON VHS Re-issue of SCIENCE CRAZED!

Ben Ruffett and his Hamiltion's Trash Cinema banner initially grabbed my analog-inclined attention via their steady stream of obscure and aesthetically excellent VHS tapes on the Book of Face. Ben and his HTC outfit kept my feed fat with titles that consistently gave me a serious dose VHShelf envy, offering a glimpse at mind-melting slabs of magnetic magic like Marley’s Revenge, Satan’s Place and the ever-so-elusive original release of The Bloody Video Horror that Made Me Puke on my Aunt Gertrude. In VHShort, he was posting some dope rarities, indeed, mang. I got to talking with Ben about his rewind-inclined...

Analog-Inclined Engineer Logan Owlbeemoth and his TACHYONS+ Brand Customizes Vintage Video Processors to Create Incredible Glitch Art Visuals via the VHS Format and Beyond!

As any Tapehead is likely to tell you, an acute appreciation for the aesthetics of VHS is one the most inherent aspects of our love for this magnetic medium. The innate idiosyncrasies and inevitable decay of the analog picture and sound in their natural state are usually enough to appease the average analog aesthetic thirst, but there are others who want to take those natural clips and blips a bit further and manipulate them into their own personal mutation of magnetic magic. Enter Logan Owlbeemoth and his wife Omebi AKA the analog engineering outfit TACHYONS+. Over the years, they’ve modified...
