I’ve been playing with the offsetcircles patch from before, and came up with a whole bunch of nice results. Taking a page from Claude, I made the drawing recursive (hmm… makes me want to use Scheme…) and rendered out these two short videos. These are fun experiments in basic, rotary motion. Its really amazing what fun you can have with simple math, rotations, and some blending.
There’s also this one.
Here’s the actual sketch plus code (the last version, anyway):

My first thought after (and during) this past Immersion at The Flea Pit, London - Where did all you people come from?! People were queued up in the hallway leading to the performance wing of The Pit for almost the entire night. It got so crowded that I had to stop videoing the event, people were in the way of my camera. We had to trust our laptop screen in the back while doing visuals because we couldn’t see past the crowd to the screens!
Of course, this is a good thing. Thanks to everyone who showed up! Your enthusiasm and energy makes these (free) events worthwhile.

Energetic and and intense set from PixelPusher (visuals) and 0 > 1 (sound). Dang it, there was such good bass in the room when I recorded this track, but my camera microphone didn’t pick up any of it. To get the full experience, get out a large metallic drum and give it a good whack whenever you see the visuals in the background flicker (they were working off the bass volume). I might have 0 > 1 re-do this track if/when we decide to put out an Immersion DVD.

This is my favorite set so far. The audio and video are so tightly wound in this performance that you couldn’t slide a nanowire in between them. I was hypnotized; the images just seemed to pour straight out of my mind onto the blank projection screen. Dammit, this set had atmosphere. Big thanks to Duskrider for that.
Quicktime (640×360) ~440MB

I really liked this set. The whole night started off with some great, soundtrack-style, moody electronic soundscapes courtesy of Duskrider and I brought some dark, video destroying software to match.

I’ve been working on some new collaborative visuals software for performance, and finally finished the first version of it. Basically, it’s a modified and stripped down version of my main performance patch, Sine-Rave, without the audio analysis and effects. read on for screenshots and more

As part of a collaboration with krgn (Karsten Gebbert) I made a few test music videos, like this one. It’s an early version of what was to become a pretty complex performance system for PixelPusher called VideoDestroyer. (video in full post) Read more… »
