Fractals: The Infinite In Between
27 Dec
This is a beautiful fractal interpretation of universal patterns, appropriating sacred geometry in a sort of cosmic creation mythos. The video strikes me as a primordial stars journey in a process of fractal proliferation across the universe. Created by Minghao Xu at Void Visuals, his work wants to remind of the universal essence within us all.

“4 Givings” Colin Barton
13 DecLos Angeles Filmmaker and very groovy friend Colin Barton takes us on a highly textured psychedelic journey using cameraless direct on film animation techniques.
Colin says:
Based on multiples of fours, ‘4 Givings’ moves through the cycle of the day with the central theme of forgiveness, release, renewal, and acceptance. Following an alchemical motif, earth, wind, fire, and water recur and are represented by archetypes and abstractions.
Animated on fours, this all 35mm direct on film animation was composited in After Effects.
Made from Stock
13 DecWhen a friend showed me this video for the first time, I asked him, “How would you go about making a video like this? How would you describe this vision to a director?” It turns out that you don’t. Carl Burgess was given complete freedom in creating this video for Ratatat, and the finished product was made entirely from stock footage. Here’s a full article on the production: http://www.fastcodesign.com/1662128/carl-burgess-director-of-the-years-creepiest-coolest-music-video
And while the above is my favorite, I think it would be dishonest of me to post a Ratatat video for a community like the DPV without tossing in at least one more. I’d say Falcon Jab is probably the most traditionally psychedelic of their videos–that I’ve seen, anyway–but there’s just something all too human in the video for Drugs that made me choose it for my headline this Saturday.
Mothership
4 DecMothership is the first of five films created by FutureDeluxe to launch their new brand. Vibrant cotton candy colours and other-worldly creatures. Some serious psychedelic eye candy. For your curiosity, check out the making-of video, and stay tuned for the rest of the series!
