here+now

pixelnoizz, *spark, an empty media card and a glitch machine:

when its here+now, you’ll be part of it. an experimental performance workshopped as part of visualberlin festival 2010.

this will be the first time, i will use my ‘PXN‘ package, and it fits in the original concept.

so what is this ‘PXN’ thing?

This is a set of plugins, effects, transitions and generators. Based on really easy transformation of glitch, feedback, blend and mask-modes. And of course my G_P_G  is a decent part of it.

The basic concept was to make very easy performance without many contents, perhaps a live camera feed in to my face or just one video loop. And using 30-40 filters and combining them with blend-modes and feedback. I think this kind of combination is enough for a performance, and the performance will not less than one performance with hundreds of well prepared video loops.

And yes, we met with *spark during last LPM festival, we spent some time together and with Vade as well. He offered to make something with a wireless photo camera and glitches. As my stuff is really supported by Vade’s V002 its in reality a cooperation between us.

opera visuals

I was invited to make an opera style live visual in berlin. The opera singer was Andrea Rost, world famous hungarian wonder. It was a big challenge, with massive research in different movie archives, to find the exact footage.

For the live part i used VDMX, because its always handy if i need to use decent number of movie footage, and i needed the possibility to sign some important points of the movie, and easily jump there. 

And yes i made some custom QC effects, using  Vade’s film effects. The vignette and the white diffusion is more than handy with this kind of old film materials.
