[Frameworks] field-level processing in video

[mrktosc]

I have a recollection that Ernie made a video piece called Crystal Palace that specifically depended upon interlace and field stuff and as a result he had difficulty translating it later to progressive digital video formats, although maybe that was done successfully since I last heard about it. I’m pretty sure he had two pieces that worked with this, but I can’t remember the name of the other one.

I’m particularly interested in practices that manipulate fields (1/60 second in NTSC), whether for timing-based image alteration or for preserving field-specific flicker phenomena. Thanks!
