This supremely chill video was made as an album teaser, but is nevertheless a delightful supernova of color set to the sounds of Stereo Silence.
Soaring through a spectral star-scape

16 DecThis video for “On the Platform” by The Bewitched Hands is a visual revelry, telling the story of dimensional conquest driven by love. Perhaps an archetypal allegory for all evolutionary leaps.
Morphing with Jack Dubben
15 DecThe beautiful videos of Jack Dubben make excellent, hyper-psychedelic use of morphing effects.
And here is another delightful animation by Dubben.

Special Thanks to Scott Draves, Founder of the Electric Sheep
created for The Filmshop Presents…Eye Candy
Electric Sheep is a collaborative abstract artwork founded by Scott Draves. It’s run by thousands of people all over the world, and can be installed on any ordinary PC or Mac. When these computers “sleep”, the Electric Sheep comes on and the computers communicate with each other by the internet to share the work of creating morphing abstract animations known as “sheep”.
Anyone watching one of these computers may vote for their favorite animations using the keyboard. The more popular sheep live longer and reproduce according to a genetic algorithm with mutation and cross-over. Hence the flock evolves to please its global audience. You can also design your own sheep and submit them to the gene pool.
The result is a collective “android dream”, blending man and machine to create an artificial lifeform.
Oh Diobolo – Jay Saul
26 NovJay Saul has been creating animation videos since 1983, but ” it is only recently that it is approaching possible to show them the way they look uncompressed in full resolution. ”
“The most ordinary things create visuals when one is tripping. It is when one is not tripping–that is the challenge–to bring things back through the door.” says Saul.
You can find some beautiful stuff among the dozens of videos featured on his YouTube page here.
The Sophie Aerolith

A dazzling display of geometric color, shimmering and morphing. I think that this is what Terence McKenna’s “transcendental object at the end of time” would look like if it could translate from hyperspace into 3 dimensions.

Jan Kounen / The last red chaperone
13 JulI already talked about Jan Kounen, one of my favorite movie director, actor, writer and documentary maker in psychedelia …
Today, I want to show you “The last red chaperone”, his version of the famous fairy…
It’s in french and spanish subtitled, but the fact here is much more about the visuals and the techniques he used to give us the perception he wanted, and it’s a success !
Please, enjoy 😉
