“10,000 Emerald Pools”- Børns
7 Mar
I’m a little obsessed with this video today. It may tend more towards the dreamy side than pyschedelic, but it definitely feels other-wordly. Børns is a LA singer songwriter whose current claim to fame is that he lives in a tree-house- quite dreamy. The ethereal vocals combined with clever underwater footage make it easy to fall into Børns’ world.
Sound-Reactive Visuals // Beyond the magic mushrooms
4 MarSound-reactive visuals made by Victor Morales to the music of Pal Asle Pettersen all in a colorful virtual world based on CRYengine gaming technology.
“Mushrooms” is basically a sound reactive animation where only the camera’s position and FOV are affected by the lowest frequencies of the audio.
Jan Svankmajer films
2 MarIt was hard to believe. I searched the DPV a number of time before I could believe that we don’t have anything by Czech master Jan Svankmajer yet. For those of you who don’t know Svankmajer, a more significant introduction to the work of the Czech animator might be required than I can supply here, and you can find some information here on wikipedia.
Here I’ll just say that Svankmajer is a highly renowned animator and filmmaker whose work has been celebrated by the likes of Terry Gilliam and Milos Forman ever since the 1980s. These two short movies, “Dimensions of Dialogue” and “Tma, Svetlo, Tma” should serve as a decent introduction to his highly surrealistic world.
