Trampoline Ident

Just discovered this ancient animation in my vaults – an ident for the Trampoline digital art festival, created from screenshots of corrupt arcade load screens (thanks MAME) and the old arcade ‘classic’ Stun Runner. Created way back in 2003.

Music is by V.L.A.D.

Open Frameworks experiment 1

This is my first toe dip into the world of coding, created in a Lovebytes workshop by hacking an Open Frameworks example, which uses audio to affect the visuals on screen. The end goal is to create a visual accompaniment to my live gigs, using MIDI, audio and possibly even a webcam, to generate and affect the visuals.

Small word of warning – I used feedback from laptop’s microphone as a sound source so turn your speakers down before hitting play.

This is my first foray into the world of motion graphics, by way of the mighty After Effects, using the fantastic artwork of Kipikapopo for a looping ident to be projected in The Plug nightclub.
