"The camera tube is basically a TV set in reverse: Light is reflected from image (A) focused by lens (B) on target plate (C). The target is scanned by the electron beam (D) produced by the tube and converted into electrical information or voltage and amplified (E). Finally, electrical information passes by wire to the picture tube or cathode ray tube (CRT) in the TV monitor (F). The CRT scans the face of the TV tube in the monitor in step with the electronic information supplied by the camera (G). The image is displayed on the light-sensitive face of the CRT, converting electrical information back into light information again."
What started out as an attempt to put life into an old, analog cathode ray tube tv-camera from 1980, turned into an experimental skateboard-portrait, following the everyday struggle of two lost and confused but yet passionate skateboarders and there hunt for skate-spots in Malmö City.
