Static Noise Project in AE CS3
I'm sure there are a dozen different versions of this online - - but it was easier to make (about 5 minutes) than it was to search for a reference. The audio was created with After Effects Audio plugins, so it's all self-contained, but you'll need AE CS3 to open it.
If you want some cool looking effects for your actual video, you'll probably want to purchase either TWITCH, a new plugin from Andrew Kramer, or DAMAGE, a new plugin from DigiEffects.

Arlene Bogna @ Art Scene Cal
Suvan Geer says:
It?s impossible to view Arlene Bogna?s ?Safari Americana? photographs and not sink into a nostalgic reverie. Her color saturated images of hulking man-made bovines standing like dumb, complacent sentinels in dark R.V. parks or empty dirt lots bring with them a strong whiff of this country?s historic car culture.
It?s Route 66, roadside-stands selling local produce and small Western towns with a home grown sense of humorous advertising moxie that her photo safari casts as its exotic locales. She asks us to consider what it is in human nature, or the American psyche, that makes us delight in the sight of painted, three dimensional animals perched atop sign poles or hawking honey from flat bed trucks. Often it is just the familiarity of a sight pulled up from the nation?s fast vanishing roadway past that we think about.
