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 VISUALS Visuals by Strangeloop Studios @strangeloopstudios @mrlmnto Content Director: Ian Simon @_blount Content Creative & Lead Animator: David Wexler @strangelooptv Content Producer: Gavin Gamboa @gavcloud Content Animation: Nicholas Juister @nicjuister Clayton McCracken @cl810n Ray Elemento @mrlmnto REUKO @_reuko André Zakhya @andrezakhya LIGHTING & DESIGN: Stage Design: @bendinglite.productions Show Designer/Director: Erik Mahowald @ejmahowald Associate Designer/Technical Integration: Josh Gregoire @joshgregoire_ Drafting: Collyns Stenzel @mrcollyns TOURING TEAM: Lighting and Laser Programmer and Operator: @spencer.a.michaels Asst Lighting Programmer: @dk.lighting Video Operator and Director: @official.keenan Tour Director: Max Goessing Production Manager: Larry Barcello Production Assistant: @franciac Tour Manager: Conor Gray FOH Audio: @will_nance_ Merch: @kristinaredd MANAGEMENT: @redlightmgmt Manager: Eric Sliver Manager: Elyse Young @elyseyou Manager: Brandon Garber @bggarber Agent: Jake Bernstein @jakefromvenice

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. Photo by @mikeeekimchi from the Brooklyn Steel show
