Audio/Visual re-mixing (NSFW for language within the first few minutes, amongst other things - read comment)
DJ Cheeba-The Reels of Solid Steel from Solid Steel on Vimeo.
Hey folks! In the last few years, there has been the creation of marketed technology which allows for audio/visual analog mixing in the same way that vinyls have been spun, scratched, jumped, looped for the last few decades. This is an example of what can be done with that technology. What's really neat about this video in particular is that the DJ inlays a video of the work he's doing at a few particular moments (for example 21:30). (Also of note, 47:28, just because the audio/visual syncing is dead on).
Even if the musical stylings don't tickle your fancy (hip-hop, electronic, drum and bass), it's worth taking a quick peek!

FYI - NSFW means Not Safe For Work. I'm making note of this due to ThunderHeist's (Canadian electro-pop) Jerk It being part of the play list. With respect to this song though, it's also, to my knowledge, one of the first videos to be creatively outsourced to visual artists at large through a contest. This seems to be a new trend for small budget bands who want large budget videos -- these open invitations are often picked up by visual students in creative programs, or new visual artists.
ReplyDeleteNSFW for also the language within the first few minutes, and the nude organist (from Monty Python?) as well.
ReplyDeletehi all --
ReplyDeletelast night we watched a video of a performance, and i (and others) wondered where this fits with visual research practices, precisely. is it research? and so on. here's something donal said at the beginning of the course: "The work of a number of contemporary artists and their art practices will be introduced and discussed throughout the course in an attempt to overlay their practices of visualization and meaning making with research practices of visual researchers and theories of visual research."

Cool!
ReplyDeleteI will surely use it in the future for my research!
THANKS.
