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.

The Autechre Sound and Vision

20 Nov

The Autechre sound and the famous congenial video clip by Alex Rutterford offer an explicitly synthetic synaestetic experience to our senses. The computer generated textures of image and sound recall the promise of a limitless richness to our modern days once again. And this time (again) the creatio ex nihilo is in the hands of man… and it is rather available compared to heavy industry. The promise of the artificial paradise grows in the vast amount of “unofficial videos” created to the sound of Autechre and similar artists.

I think this version of the promise of an artificial paradise is typical for the 90’s and early 00’s.

RIVKA + Baron Prášil

18 Nov


A great video for an outstanding song. Footage from the film Baron Prásil (the ’60s Czech version of The Fabulous Baron Munchausen) set to RIVKA’s “Kid Animal.” This song is from RIVKA’s eponymous debut album, which in my opinion is some of the most brilliant music of 2011. It’s like a metaphysical birthday cake for your brain. You can stream the full album here to make your Friday a little more psychedelic.
