Morphing with Jack Dubben

15 Dec

The beautiful videos of  Jack Dubben make excellent, hyper-psychedelic use of  morphing effects.

And here is another delightful animation by Dubben.

Oneohtrix Point Never – Pelham Island Road

11 Dec

This one is breathing light and color. There is a constant swelling of complexity, a constant unfolding movement and at the same time everything seems to return to simplicity and form. It’s dazzling and soothing, just what the doctor ordered. Enjoy!

“Timothy Leary on the beach”, could have been an alternate title to this one, which features a Leary soundtrack and spectacular of the sea, a beautiful girl in bikini and the sunset.  A feeling of nostalgia fills this 17 minutes long piece by Alessandro Carvalho which has a distinct 1960’s feel.

Blackbird Blackbird – Pure

9 Dec


This video evokes altered-state imagery that will be familiar to many viewers. The black grid lines, jewel-like colors, and hints of embarkation, observation, and approach are especially redolent. The patterns integrate into the subject matter to create a formscape reminiscent of hyperspatial modalities. The visual rhythm is cohesive and masterfully executed to compliment the Blackbird Blackbird song Pure.

The makers of this clip warn us that it can become too psychedelic for your brain. Beware.

Panaframe has an excellent Vimeo page, with several lively music videos of shimmering vistas to activate all the right endorphins. Here are two to get you started:



For those of us in the northern hemisphere who wish it was still summer, an iridescent tropical daydream for “In the Water” by Beat Connection.



And in this video, prismatic visuals highlight the ethereal sounds of “Upperground Stories” by Plastic Flowers.
