Coldplay – Up&Up (Official video)

21 May

Coldplay’s new music video Up&Up directed by Vania Heymann and Gal Muggia is a surrealist masterpiece bringing together all types of disparate elements like cars driving on the rings of Saturn, a gymnast jumping over fields bombarded by napalm bombs, a ferry docking inside a bathtub, or people diving inside a washing machine. Just beautiful.

White Rabbit (Remix) – trippy video of fractal deepdream hallucinations

7 May

As psychedelic film makers continue to explore the potentials of Google’s psychedelic Deep Dream neural network, this hallucinatory rendition to Jefferson Airplane’s White Rabbit by YouTube user Chillheimer might me be the trippiest we’ve seen so far.

Totally Tulip-Trixy Sweetvittles and friends

8 Jan

It’s my birthday tomorrow, so I thought I’d post one of my films. This one is a favorite of mine. It was created in collaboration with my dear friends twins Lecie and Katie Williams and their kids. Their hubbies, Rob Waller and Paul Galiunas make some sweet special appearances as does lovely Andrea Thome. I hope you enjoy the psychedelic silliness!

Google Artificial Neural Networks – A collection

19 Oct

A few months ago the internet was raging about the new psychedelic videos released by Google. Apparently, when you take Google’s artificial neural networks (ANN) which recognize patterns in images and cause them to reiterate in loops, highly psychedelic patterns emerge, which caused many to ponder the ways in which these ANN’s can teach us about the psychedelic nature of reality and our consciousness. While Samy has already dedicated a great post to this issue,  it seems like a good time for a retrospective of the Google ANN phenomena. So here are some of those psychedelic mind boggling courtesy of Google’s Deep Dream algorithm.

First some explanation of how these images are created:

The Abstractions of Morgan Beringer

12 Sep

A beautiful, haunting, trance-inducing and marginally disturbing video art series. Morgan Beringer (featured here before) has uploaded 23 of 64 videos – each a strikingly unique composition – usually morphing photographs or after-effects generators with various aberrations & distortions with a hypnotic rhythm track. Watch the entire playlist and you’ll be entranced… I’ve shared some of my favourites here.
