PC demo, 1st place at Ghetto Scene 2014. Original file.
Andy Baker animated Hattie’s illustrations.
The original was not sexy enough, so Hattie had to add some improvements.
Psychedelic animation starts at 02:54.
Taken from the EP appropriately titled “Hallucinogen”.
Soviet-era scifi animation by Vladimir Tarasov. Apparently acid found its way to the Soviet Union as well.
By Dóra Keresztes.
The film, in her own description “grows from a microscopic cell division into a living, surging image-stream of incessant transformation. Sheer intuition, embracing emotion and the significance of interpreting dreams pulsate within it. The emblem-like symbols, mythical symbols of animals and man, reminiscent of the archaic figures of people of nature, appear in an all-embracing organic frame, perpetually taking shape, arousing the notion of cave-aperture or the womb”.

The hand is a critical interface to the world, allowing the use of tools, the intimate sense of touch, and a vast range of communicative gestures. Yet we frequently take our hands for granted, thinking with them, or through them, but hardly ever about them. Our investigation takes a position of exploration and wonder. Can real-time alterations of the hand’s appearance bring about a new perception of the body as a plastic, variable, unstable medium? Can such an interaction instill feelings of defamiliarization, prompt a heightened awareness of our own bodies, or incite a reexamination of our physical identities? Can we provoke simple wonder about the fact that we have any control at all over such a complex structure as the hand?
Lovely combination of different animation techniques by Emanuele Kabu.
