Visuals for @subtronics show at @coachella ⚡️
The turnout for this one was truly mind blowing and can’t thank @_blount & @strangelooptv enough for letting me play around with some crazy techniques for this!
Made with a combination of practical techniques, Touchdesigner, Notch, and After Effects. Practical techniques include filming Tesla coils, plasma lamps, and lasers shot through refractive objects ⚡️
Slide 1 - turned the logo into sound and fed that audio into a pointcloud in @touchdesigner
Slide 2 - filmed practicals of Plasma lamps with @aj.murray & @angela.m.ricciardi
Slide 3 - @notchvfx particles with logo acting as attractor/repeller in fluid simulations
Slide 4 - filmed practicals of laser light refracting through a warped plastic lens

My dear friend @jw__francis canoed the entire Mississippi River and wrote an album about it! Here’s a video I made for his song “Jeffrey” with some drone footage shot by @mike.makes 🦦🛶
Tame Impala “My Old Ways”
Dream come true to have these 16mm laser works I made with @kristofski featured in the official music vid for one of my faves off of Deadbeat!
Directed shot and edited by the one and only @kristofski featuring sooo much beautiful footage from his archive 📽️
Light Transfer
The first in a series of video works exploring the imprint and translation of light onto physical objects.
This piece was created with a laser light filmed on a vintage broadcast camera. The video loop was then printed onto paper and re-scanned to create a stop-motion animation 🌀
Beyond excited to share some visuals I made for @magdalenabay ’s iconic “Imaginal Mystery” tour! 🌀
This spiral visual for “Tunnel Vision” was generated with a laser that I projected on a wall and filmed with a vintage British broadcast camera. The spiral pattern was shaped with waveforms using an analog video synthesizer.

Had the wonderful opportunity to create some visuals with @strangeloopstudios for the @everythingalwaysforever (@domdolla & @johnsummit ) show at the legendary Gorge Ampitheater back in September
Delivered a wide range of content for this one, including analog-processed fluid simulations, oscillographics, ASCII looks, and geometric/feedback abstractions.

Neural Transfer 🧠
Made in @notchvfx
An animation showcasing what the inside of my brain looked like learning Notch this past month! So excited to put this new software to use!
Made this clip thanks to a fantastic tutorial by @elekktronaut
