Eye scorching, ear splitting audiovisual mix-up inspired by the electronic music phenomena and today's epileptic media bombardment. A wandering dreamy chronicle of flickering, mood phasing colour bursts and surreal opiate-like visions blurring the line between analogue and digital. A no holds barred sampling of films, tv, ads, the web, street art and ordinary everyday objects, layering and coaxing these diverse, contradictory samples into ghosts of their former selves. Early man stared into the primordial fires, gazing deeply into those shape-shifting flames. Hopefully this piece can touch on that hypnotic state and inspire some creative occurrence.

    nice stuff-
    its "starring" not "staring"

    what are you composing in, and how much is live?

    i like the way you list your collaborators-
    marilyn must have been a gas...
  • lucidhouse 4 months ago
    cheers for the spell check, just changed it..
    The only live part was mixing the music, then did some post editing on sound track to shorten.

    Visuals are first mixed, layered, recorded as short loops in Resolume, then edited, composed in Premiere and a bit of tweeking in After effects at the end.
