Ben Ridgeway has some great animations of tryptaminesque topographies. The one above is a kind of dimensional unfolding, and the one below is a perfect rendering of ayahuasca-vison. The full Cellular Circuitry video will be released later this year, so hopefully we will get a chance to post the entire film then.
SuperDraw
8 AugsuperDraw is a platform for visual expression using drawing. At the most basic level it is a simple line drawing program. The aim is to give the artist super powers by enabling them to do things impossible with pen and paper while retaining the basic idea of a drawing interface. superDraw explores the idea of storing animation within a single line. The artist has complete control of all aspects of the line and it’s visual representation.
application
In its current iteration, the program is being used as a visual instrument, providing visuals for live music.
The artist is encouraged to respond to what they hear, rather than rely on automatic processes. This allows a greater freedom of expression and deeper collaboration between artist and musician. SuperDraw becomes an instrument itself, adding to the overall performance.
Possible future directions for the program include interactive video installations, dance performances, physical computing, and games.
