Interactive Kaleidoscope

31 Oct

http://inoyan.narod.ru/kaleidoskop.swf

This is a visualization of a kaleidoscope, as you might have already guessed. This one also reacts to cursor movements, providing non-stop psychedelic visuals. What I like to do with it is to stare into it’s middle until the hypnotizing swirling movement fills my whole field of view. Then it looks like I’m floating inside…

Morning Teleportation – Expanding Anyway

25 Oct

Lovely lovely morning tripping directed by Phantasmic.

Robert Breer – Blazes

24 Oct

This experimental animation form 1961 seems to be made of imagery coming from the subconscious… It’s abstractness (of the visuals and sounds) makes it hypnotic, in it’s own “epileptic-ish” way.

Peter Gabriel – Sledgehammer and Digging in the Dirt

23 Oct

I did the search three times… I just couldn’t believe that nobody posted this until now.

These music videos really left an impression on my young brain when I encountered them accidentally on MTV in the late 80’s and early 90’s.  I still get the feeling that these impressions get locked away again the moment the video stops. If you asked me now what happens in either one – five minutes after watching them again- I think I couldn’t tell you. There is something about a snail…

Siriusmo – Einmal in der woch schreien

22 Oct

Madeleine Aronson beautifully mixed this Siriusmo track together with  Fractals, computer games, flamenco dancers and old  movie cuts  excerpts.

The original video-clip for the track is superbly psychedelic as well.
