i may not have been blogging terribly often the last few weeks but that’s because i was making this! it’s for james annesley’s virtual proximity – the track’s called suburbia. dig the album here. the clip was made using a combination of stop motion animation and projection mapping and i put together a little video describing the process. dig that below.
quake anyone?
i’ve started a new clip for Virtual Proximity – the sax/beats/pixels trio i VJ in. the new clip uses a combination of stop motion animation and projection mapping. so far the process has been something like this: 1.) animate thing the track’s called suburbia and the clip has a big focus on power lines and houses (both large+real and small+paper). i love the look of power lines and i’ve really been enjoying projecting onto them, making the ceramic insulating doohickies flicker and causing anxiety amongst my neighbors.

in other news, the dudes at projuice have thrown up a little write up about me which makes me feel a little warm and fuzzy. projuice is a media creation showing airing on abc at the moment – it’s really great seeing tutorial style programming making the airways especially since it’s pretty much favorite sort of thing to watch on the interwebs. that and videos of baby sloths. in other, other news, i’ve been inspired by this, this and this and have decided to build a midi controller (i’ve undertaken a similar project in the past). i’ll be using the guts from two korg nanokontrols and a usb qwerty keyboard and it should end up looking a bit like this:

big things happening in zeal land. my new album is hitting the net july 4th! that’s only five more sleeps. the juicy details are as follows: it has eleven tracks, many of them mention robots, several mention dragons and the stars. the whole thing has a hearty serve of anti-authoritarianism. it’s a bit electronic, a bit folky, a bit poppy, a bit ukulele. i was listening to a lot of anticon when i wrote it so it’s got some wordiness in there too. it’s going to be a free download or you can buy the amazing handmade package you see above (and below). it’s all very exciting.
and if that wasn’t enough i’m puting togethert a new zeal website. if you see zealousy.com in your address bar you’re already looking at my shiny new site. there might some broken links in the archives as i shuffle things around but i’m on it. promise. and i have a show coming up too… i leave you in suspense for now. back to web making. |
