I made myself a little Quartz Composition to relive my exciting youth, that consisted of watching or wanting to watch stuff on the familys black and white TV set.

From what I can remember we had the usual white noise as the background, then some sort of moving vertical lines - for what ever reason - that made it up or down the screen like little waves. Finally we got some ghosting images due to signal reflection. All that analogue goodness is gone, and the only thing we got now are MPG artifacts and decoder bugs.

Anyways it all looked actually very close to the movie that should be playing on the left side. I used a video from a 1984 conference and got a picture from an old SABA TV-Set. With both these as inputs to my Quartz Composer thingy I get that retro effect.
