LIGHTS
Continued from Page 9
Rolling Stone magazine. "Peo
ple. people, people It may a*
well be People Magazine. The)
just don't think visually.” Most
musk videos also "just don’t
gel it,” he said. because the)
are visually based on the
Ivrn.s. not the music
The light show company is
now producing a promotional
video of its own. With nothing
but the light show and his
camera, Krich Boekelheide of
Erich's Sight and Sound has
augmented the visual effects
with zooming, strobing, solar
ization and stop-action tech
niques
Despite the simple t« hnolo
gy, the special effects are
enough to confound even a
computer wizard. Lesan said
“I had some computer genius
es look at the tape, and they
asked me 'How did you do
that''' They couldn't believe it
wasn't computer generated."
he said
Yet Phantazmagoria Lights
has been produi ing "videos
for more than 2Ti years In
l'lfi?., Mosher and Lesan made
what may have been the first
musu video with "Bebba on
the Moon." an animated series
of (>t) light show slides accom
panied by music
The new video is part of an
effort to revive the psv< httdei
ic light show Part of the impe
tus for this came in 19B9,
when Phantasmagoria Lights
went on the nostalgic; "Sum
mer of Love Tour" with Big
Brother and the Holding Com
pany and other f>()s bands.
the point is. there is no
point This is just another
pointless thing, hut it's better
than working on motorcycles."
I.esan said
f un aside, he also said he
believes the light show is an
integral part of art history
"We went from the abstract
expressionism of the 50s to
computer-generated graphics,
with nothing in between
except the light show. ' he
said.
PANIC

She roc allci! an («< asion when she played the
Skinny Puppy video "Worlock after first warn
ing viewers that the video was n series of graph*
ir i Ups from horror movies
i got half a dozen (alls on the machine right
after it aired A few of them said that my playing
the video had ‘ruined their image of me.'
Daniels said.
Defining pist exactly how lug Pci/nc s audi*
eni e is tru kv, she said, f’.ugene is a diary market,
rather than a metered market A survey of view
ers depends on their motivation in filling out the
diary of the shows they watch and returning it to
Nielsen
Daniels receives about 111 letters a week from
viewers Viewers send in reipiesls. words of
encouragement, drawings, cartoons and even an
cm i asional marriage proposal
Daniels once got a letter from a nine-\ear-old
who wall lies the show with his father, she said.
One time I made the mistake of telling view
ers that I have i lownphobia I'm totally afraid of
i low ns I have brum since 1 was a kid, she said.
The next week I got a i lown doll in the mail "
Daniels said she believes her audience to l>e a
mixture of young college students, high school
students, night laborers and insomniacs.
Sheldon High School junior Ann Hand, a D)
at KRVM. said she likes most of the music
Daniels selects for the show
"1 like the Bullholo Surfers and the Beastie
Boys, hut 1 would like to sett more of The Pixies.
Green Day and the Gin !e forks." she said
Daniels takes pride in the fac t that Panic is a
non-sc ripted show in which she is not required
to use a play list and does not have to repeat
songs as they do on M r\’
"I don't like MTV I have seen them go from
Amy Grant to Nirvana The most important
thing Is to have transition." she said. Daniels
does not script her show because she believes
it's too phony
'It's difficult for me to want to polish the
show because that would validate it." she said.
Like many television personalities. Daniels
has a "cause
"1 tell people to spay or neuter their pets, just
like Hob barker does." she said.
"I think it's a responsibility of those people
who are in a position to influence other people
to promote things that are good," she added.
Daniels' desire to protect animals has carried
her away at times, she said. She once told view
ers not to huv products that wore tested on ani
mals She even*offered to give them a list of the
companies that do animal testing it they called
her.
In addition to working on Panic. Daniels
works on the production of another v ideo show
called Country Comfort She selects the videos
for the show and works on other behmd-the
si enes as per ts of production
Daniels also i rented the set for Panu She
spray-painted "Make love, not war" and other
common phrases on a white sheet that provides
the bat kdrop for the show
The bright lighting sometimes causes her to
blink as if it really were 2 a.in
"1 was realty hammered when I watched your
show, and I know you were, too." a v iewer told
Daniels
One of the perks that goes along with being
the host of a late night v ideo show is getting to
interview bands that come to Eugene. Daniels
said She's rubbed elbows with Do pur lie Mode.
