Whitney Alexander: Western Sunrise
14 JanVery smart and efficient way of using painterly filters. The intentionally rough 3D models are brought to life by the teeming brushstrokes.
Whitney has also directed this quite remarkable alternate reality romp:

“Human Drama” by Planningtorock
12 Janperforming the liquid symmetries of sexuality
We have featured several works by musician, video director and performing artist Planningtorock here on dpv. While sexual identity/diversity is a theme running through her work, pretty often we find it mixed with strong psychedelic aesthetics. “Human Drama” from the upcoming album “All Love’s Legal” is no exception. Maybe it is time to look further into this connection…

Stepehen Malinowsky – Auto-Animated Musical Scores
6 JanStephen Malinowsky wrote us:
“In the 1970s, under the influence of LSD, I saw a musical score auto-animate (that is, dance along with itself). However, because musical scores are hard to read, this effect was only possible with simple music.

Last year (nearly forty years later), I had a chance to look at some of my animated graphical scores under the influence of LSD. Sadly, it wasn’t what I’d hoped for. However, I subsequently got to watch them under the influence of mescaline, and the effect was everything I’d dreamed of. I’ve made hundreds of these videos (which are (which are available at my YouTube channel via the link I provided).”
Indeed Malinowsky’s synesthetic clips, which receive dozens of millions of views counts on YouTube, are a delightful experience, and make the majestic pieces by Strawisnky, Debussy and Beethoven even more enjoyable.
“We Are All Connected” by Symphony of Science (ft. Sagan, Feynman, deGrasse Tyson & Bill Nye)
5 Jan
Today I want to direct your awareness to the lovely Symphony of Science project by John D. Boswell (aka melodysheep). By applying the good old auto-tune effect to scientific lectures and “remixing” them he created a series of wonderfully cheesy videos brim-full with trippy visualizations of scientific theories.
Enjoy!
