Baby Jesus celebrates his birthday

24 Jun

This week, I celebrated my 33rd birthday. Being 33, which is of course the age in  Jesus died of the course, made me think of Jesus, and the time to be reborn.

A friend of mine shared this link on my wall, to congratulate me for my birthday with a psychedelic-pop-Jesus. I was mesmerized.

This is not the first but the (1, 2, 3…) fourth time that cyriak’s videos are featured here on dpv. Enjoy these recent additions to his  worlds of  uncanny and beautiful recursion (you might even find some resemblance to minecraft’s blocky universe)!

Typography videos has been getting pretty big on the web in the past couple of years.  Now, Olivier Ferland has been doing some pretty amazing work with two beautiful psychedelic raps from psychedelic stand-up prophet Bill Hicks  and from Terence McKenna.

Cyriak – Surrealistic Animal Evolutionism

17 Jan

In recent weeks we have been receiving a fair amount of Cyriak links. Cyriak, an after effects artist whose work has  already been featured here on the DPV is garnering millions upon millions of YouTube views and quickly becoming a sort of YouTube age Dali (At least in terms of popularity).

Imaginatively and often viciously playing around with simple photos and animations, Cyriak creates dream landscapes which often turn into bizzare nightmares. The result is compelling, though I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it for someone under the influence…
