Collaborative fraktals

14 Dec

Karmalize Productions 2011
Shot & Edited by Alex Gaylon
Assistant Director – Caroline Creaghead
Music – Ryan Dann
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.

The Sophie Aerolith

25 Nov


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.

“water – sound – drawing” by A. Lauterwasser & S. Keller

5 Oct

I am working on a project with a collective of musician, dancers, videasts, a project dealing with the power of vibration, the power of nature, and the power of humans…

During my research, I discovered this incredible biologist, and artist, who works with sound and water, Alexander Lauterwasser is a master in hist art…

At the performance “under water 03”, Stefan Keller combined his music, “water-sound-drawings” by Alexander Lauterwasser, “sound drawings” by Stefan Keller and text performed by Marco Caduff.
The flutist “speaks” trough his contrabassflute to the water …

The Temples of Damanhur

19 Sep

Just by a small Italian village stands a typical-looking house. But unlike it’s exterior, under it is a secret entrance to a hidden complex of rich and imaginative architecture, the Temples of Humankind of Damanhur.

Built by a small group of devoted people with only hand tools, the halls and corridors of the temples are ornately decorated with so many details the sight of viewing it is almost like a trip through imagination, an open book recording and exhibiting  human creativity. This all was inspired by the claimed supernatural visions that the group’s leader, Oberto Airaudi, recieved from a previous life at the age of ten.

uvAntam aka Ubar Tmar

6 Sep

Japanese uvAntam is known not only for his crazy brand of psytrance, but also his love for sacred geometry and mathematics, which the above visual pieces illustrate perfectly. Consider for example his 2002 album Macrometasomakosmos:

The arrangement/rhythm of musical elements on this CD is based on Penrose tiles (aperiodic tiling). It is broken into tracks all either 34 or 55 seconds long, for a total of 89 tracks (that is, 55 tracks plus 34 tracks), in accordance with the Golden Mean.

34, 55, 89 are successive terms in the Fibonacci Series – a sequence of numbers in which each term is the sum of the two previous terms. As the terms grow larger and larger the ratio of a term and its immediate predecessor approaches the Golden Mean, which is (1+√5)/2 or approximately 1.618.
