That's a cool pattern. And lots of fun to make I bet. I have a couple recordings like that which I made back in the 80s. One of them was synchronized (sort of) to Dark Side of the Moon. Another was made with an old vidicon type security camera that had a burn on the target from loss of sweep. That burn served as the seed of some very interesting patterns. I just might fire up a camera and try it again.

I bet the burned spot was a great starting point
One of my tv's has a 'jailbar' type greyscale line fault which was stellar as a focal point with the same cam and vtr
