Mind travel in process

High Seas - 2.5D Flythrough

Last week I made a 1 minute compsition using HighC - a free, standalone, graphical music creation and composition software tool.

Basically, this program allows you to 'sketch' music.

I'd been playing around with the 3d tools on Photoshop a few weeks ago so I thought I'd make a small 3d animation to visually complement the music.

However, I was finding the 3d capabilities in Photoshop really limiting so I decided to give After Effects a go.

I had no idea what I was doing but after watching a couple of youtube tutorials I kind of got the hang of it.

I ended up with this weird little clip, exported it as an MOV, imported to premiere and added the music.

I found the biggest challenge was controlling the camera and lights - you can get lost surprisingly easy in 3d (technically 2.5D) space - its a little shaky but I'm pretty happy with it as a first go!

Today I worked on a combined version of previous ("Skate Chi") videos for AV Performance;

Here are some screenshots;

Painted Marbles and Painted Snails.

Playing with painted marbles and painted snails and layers. 

I started looking at snails with the research for the travel project. Wondering how far the five snails in my mailbox traveled. Found out they travel out most nights to the grass below and then back home again at the end of the night.

Next for mapping I'm looking at the similarities between plant roots and map routes 

and colour coding.

Gif Experiment's

Here I have found a cycling gif and added a background to the image of one of my pervious posts.

Also I have used and image that i found on the internet and placed the same cycling gif as above but i have added some colour to the gif.

In Solution - Digital video project

The product of several hours of documentation footage of myself paddling on the river.

"A short film documenting my paddling experiences on the Swan River. 

I find paddling a solitary and meditative exercise. The goal is to find a rhythm to my movement whereby my headspace clears of its clutter. 

This video focuses on the repetition of movement once I've entered this physical and mental space."

Mapping places that where I want to go next, it could be a present, past or future.
Maybe, it will the place where I want to go the most. Trough to this precess somehow induce me all my momeries comes up also shows how much I am miss my hom.

Two large scale of my mind mapping, one is upside down and they all separated in individual small section. which metaphor myself try to pick up every pieces of my momeries. It is to bring me zone to the other place with my own imagination.

Transistor Layers

 Layered all my travel screenshots from within this one game "Transistor" onto one image.

Screen Shot Layers

 These are layered screenshots i have taken whilst playing in games. There are nine different images blended to make one whole image. Each screenshot is from a different game. I have tried to capture moments while traveling in game that were most appealing to me, and decided to put them all together to make one big captivating image.
