Dane Conover (aka Trees) The 'New Wave' album Sleep Convention 1982, (Produced by Kim Fowley).
This was before digital image processing and no darkroom manipulation was used to create this image. This was shot as a double exposure 4x5 format with fluorescent and strobe lighting to capture the analog video synth image. Dane had to hold the pose for at least 30 seconds.

ReplyDeleteThis is an awesome album!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed working with Dane
DeleteActually, more self-produced than anything else. Fowley was part of the MCA deal, but really it was Dane and Earle Mankey who handled the production chores on this one. A severely underappreciated and oft-overlooked member recording of the genre. A must-have for those who fancy themselves a lover of new wave and synthpop.
