Beating the auto switch off function?

It seems that a lot of televisions have a function that switches them off if they remain inactive in AV mode for to long, which is problematic considering that this is the manner in which they need to be set in order to function properly in this installation. I'm currently conducting an experiment involving running constant signal through the televisions to see if they still switch off... And two of them just did...

So I guess when i wake up i'll see what has happened to the rest of them. How I'm going to surmount this problem, I'm not quite sure. Maybe there is a simple way to stop this function, or maybe an electrician can disable it?

We'll see.

Audio

Here are some new audio files that I have been working on:

Progress.

Now that I have collected all the material for the installation and have set it up in my studio at home progress has really begun. With the whole set up in my cramped studio I can now see how each different television reacts in slightly different ways to audio and the piece is taking shape.

Also it is interesting to note how each television really takes on its own sense of personality when it is subjected to different amplitudes.
