Keep your ticket ready for a 30 minutes ride in the Gang Gang Dance  kaleidoscope.

This is like Gang Gang Dance making their own version of Faust Tapes accompanied by visuals in the same spirit.

Cats vote dpv best site on the web!

26 Jan

The internet loves cats and the internet loves some seriously damaged psychedelic visuals. So why not have both? We collected some proof of concept samples for you:

Mother says you got to choose between wasting your life watching cat videos OR psychedelic videos? Don’t believe it! SO not true!

“Human Drama” by Planningtorock

12 Jan

performing the liquid symmetries of sexuality

We have featured several works by musician, video director and performing artist Planningtorock here on dpv. While sexual identity/diversity is a theme running through her work, pretty often we find it mixed with strong psychedelic aesthetics. Human Drama” from the upcoming album “All Love’s Legal” is no  exception. Maybe it is time to look further into this connection…

“We Are All Connected” by Symphony of Science (ft. Sagan, Feynman, deGrasse Tyson & Bill Nye)

5 Jan

Today I want to direct your awareness to the lovely Symphony of Science project by John D. Boswell (aka melodysheep). By applying the good old auto-tune effect to scientific lectures and “remixing” them he created a series of wonderfully cheesy videos brim-full with trippy visualizations of scientific theories.

Enjoy!

“Sprout and the Bean” by Joanna Newsom

29 Dec

Joanna Newsom crafts fragile psychedelic folk tunes. Both music and lyrics to “Sprout and the Bean” are reminiscent of the solo work of Syd Barrett in their childlike, magical simplicity and playfulness. The video accompanies this very well with its chalk animations and the empty classroom and enchanted woods settings.
