When I studied Radio, TV, and Film at Northwestern University around 1970, TV and film cameras were large and complicated, and editing took place in a small, dark room. These videos are varied. They are either documentation of art projects by ourselves or friends, some who are no longer with us, or travel videos, similar to the old Super 8 mm films, but with sound. – Chaim

In our collaboration over the past 35 years, have worked in series, or projects, sometimes lasting decades and sometimes including several mediums. These videos will hopefully give an insight into our process.

MUSIC
My musical background began in the bathtub, when I was a baby. My mother would sing to me, "The headbone's connected to the neckbone..." She had a collection of 78 rpm records of folk music, mostly from the 40's, when she had hung out with some of the artists. I was also steeped in classical music from the radio, as well as every other kind; you name it. As a teenager, I hung out in Greenwich Village, where I learned to pick guitar and listen to jazz. Yet, it wan't until I was middle-aged that I began to write my own songs. I spent 10 years in a string band and then assembled my own groups to record and perform. I have written about 50 songs to date.
