Hart to believe, but this breath-taking video was done without any computer effects, just stop motion photography.
Here is a montage of a French guy, Thierry Olivier aka Epi2mik, a street artist from Caen (FR),
Epi2mik has his own psychedelism in his way of painting, a kind of organic urban gangrene, investing the streets and the street furniture…as a pictural virus could invite itself in our vision, sometimes…!
” For me, this symbolizes all the negative things that our generation lives: AIDS, unemployment, corruption, increase of extremism, the downhill of capitalism….and so on. The city is my framework, I try to promote damaged places, disused places to realize these compositions which are like warning for the citizen…”
At the opposite of graffers, Epi2mik does not use aerosol. With a brush and water paint, he composes these short-lived urban pictures that rain will erase…
This is probably the most realistically psychedelic use of fractals and soundscapes that I have ever seen. The phasing sound and biotic patterns remind me of experiences that I didn’t know I forgot.
X-Peri-Mental?
Losing all perceptions of reality.
Swimming in a comfortable world, fluffy and foggy, the sequence of gestures, movements and situations taking place not in slow motion, but rather appearing illuminated by brief flashes of light as regular and as a result of a strobe unit in this excessive and dazzling moment, the music filling all space, seeming to accumulate in an opaque and solid mass, then diluting in color, sound waves and visual impressions becoming indistinguishable, based blocks of concrete materiality, almost rough, space and time turning confused, inextricably mingled in a kind of furious and informs matter, all of the blurred perceptions sinking into a deep obfuscation..
A total blackout.
And waking up without remembering anything, emerging suddenly from a deep sleep without dreams.
X-Peri-Mental!
