Improvised live looping

Over the last five years or so, I have been doing a lot of improvised live looping, sometimes noisy, sometimes melodic, usually with a microphone, guitar and some crappy keyboard. Though I’ve never really bothered to record any of these performances from start to finish, other than to cull loops for other songs. So last night at 1am I decided to break out the cheap camcorder. All sounds were improvised, created with a microphone, a bunch of pedals and a guitar, nothing prerecorded or planned, all one take. I put together a video collage around the live stuff with found footage.
