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.

Another great night. Transphormetic and myself trading off visuals and mixing it up for the night to a line-up of really interesting sounds and more-than-danceable music. Of course, this being London, the crowd sat in polite reverence and did not spontaneously erupt into a fit of throwing shapes and hopping around like some other cities (Berlin I’m looking at you! Have you no shame?!)
Here is a snippet from the first set to get you in the mood for movin’:

“Piksel is a festival and community for artists and developers working with Free/Libre and Open Source audiovisual software, hardware and art.”
There are a few interesting speakers, from Reactivision to London Openlab’s very own Robert Atwood with his opensource Jackbytes software for analyzing audio in realtime.

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.
Quicktime Divx (640 x 360) ~148MB

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… »
