    Also (2nd bite at the apple I know - apologies): this kind of gag is a lot funnier if the product actually works.

    After all, if vinyl is such a high-density storage medium, where are the vinyl videodiscs with 6-track sound?
    Well, it might not exist, but if it were to, it would be a cross between Vinyl Video and an enhancement to Quardophonic audio

    Hey, maybe they can start pressing video to vinyl

    I just went and say the exhibit at the ICA tonight. This stuff is pretty cool. The basic premise is that there was a missing link in home recording and this product really should have existed at some point. The images, music and cover art of the vinyl is super nice.

    Well, the difference between a laser turntable and a laserdisc player is substantial, but I won't get into that.

    OTOH, why don't you take a look at Vinyl Video and then you can get deeper into thought.

    ABC News has an interesting article about Vinyl Video. Quoting the article: "Picture a TV sitting next to a turntable. Then imagine placing the needle on a record, but rather than just hearing sounds, you see an image on the screen. Lift the needle, and the monitor goes blank. Place the needle anywhere on the record, and it picks up the video at that point." Black and white, 8 fps, amplitude modulation. Each pixel is assigned a number from 0 to 256, which is assigned to a sound level. The sound is low for black, and high for white. The Home Kit for playing back picture disks is only $2,000. Each set is produced as a limited edition of 10 copies plus 2 Artist's copies. Prices range from $6,000 to $12,000 for each three record group. Titles include 'Guinea Pig Massacre.'
