Nightmares On Wax - Smokers Delight (The Film) from Warp Records on Vimeo.

Warp Records present ‘Smokers Delight’ – a short film celebrating 25 years of Nightmares On Wax's seminal 1995 LP.

‘Smokers Delight’, Nightmares on Wax’s second album, was one of a handful of records to define a generation. It took George Evelyn from his electronic-genre-blending debut 1991’s ‘A Word of Science’ into releasing his much-loved downbeat blend of soul, hip-hop, dub and timeless club sounds, for which he has become renowned.

Interviewed in Joe Muggs’ book Bass, Mids, Tops; NOW expands on his inspiration and headspace at the time of creating ‘Smokers Delight’: “It was all the things that turned me on: reggae, soul, and through sampling and digging, hip hop was the backbone. That’s why you’ve got the dub influences on there, and the lovers rock soulful influence in there. That album is the DNA of everything that turns me on musically. At the time people used to say to me, “You’ve definitely got a Nightmares sound,” I’d be like, “Really, what do you mean?” But where I am now today, I think I understand that from a vibrational and spiritual point of view. I’m more in tune with what my heart feels and what I’m connected to when I’m making music. I know when I’m in that zone.”

Directed by Páraic Mc Gloughlin. Shot in Ireland and Poland - a journey that explores ideas of decision, choice,consequence,circumstance and time among other things, a personal perception on how we try to find whatever it is we are searching for.The film looks at objects,people,and places which share common properties,our connection with one another and our environments in the very similar yet very different paths we share.

This project became a little obsession of mine:)

Thanks Dad,Kevin Mc Gloughlin,Pearse Mc Gloughlin and Jaroslaw Klups for all the help,and input..cheers:)

WEVAL - SOMEDAY from Páraic Mc Gloughlin on Vimeo.

Taken from Weval's second album "The Weight".

kompaktrecords.lnk.to/TheWeightAR

Last year Weval approached me with the idea of developing a music video for 'Someday'. Upon listening to the track ,which I loved, I had ideas of what I thought would fit. After some discussions with the guys we came up with a loose structure.

We aimed at creating an abstract journey with a sense of ambiguity holding underlying core concepts:

Where are we going,are we going in the right direction?

Our situation on earth is fragile, as individuals, as a people and the planet itself is delicate

Nothing is certain; life can change dramatically for better or for worse in an instant.We may fear losing what we have but we try to hold on.

Big thanks to Weval, super happy to put images behind their amazing sounds!

MAX COOPER - PLATONIC from Páraic Mc Gloughlin on Vimeo.

Max Cooper

Things got pretty mad on this one after I set the task of trying to visualise the Platonic realm of form underlying reality. And Páraic Mc Gloughlin has come up with something of a masterpiece I think, using a single day-long shot, whose time-based processing is linked to the more than 100 layers of audio I used to create the music…it’s fairly intense on the audio and visual as a result, but all so precisely carried out by Páraic. A huge amount of work has gone into this on all fronts, I hope you enjoy it.

This all links into my new album project, ‘One Hundred Billion Sparks’, about our hundred billion firing neurons which create who we are, all we know and experience (onehundredbillionsparks.net). As a sub-topic for one of the music/video projects, I’ve always found it fascinating how mathematicians and scientists talk about “discovering” laws of nature, never “creating” them, even when they’re working in entirely abstract realms with little or no link to the real world. The laws and structure are usually assumed to exist independently of us in a sense very much linked to Plato’s ancient idea of the realm of ideals, with only our minds giving us access to this realm.

I came across this idea delivered in stark form in the case of the “amplituhedron”, an entity whose structure encodes fundamental particle interactions, and whose creators claim it to yield space and time in an emergent manner, so that it can’t possibly exist out there in the real world that we’re familiar with. If it does exist, it is outside of time and space, whatever that means! All this might sound like I’m falling off the cliff a little in terms of anything to do with making music videos, but, as I often find to be the case with this sort of investigation of nature, it’s rich with beautiful visual forms and many ideas which are ripe for musical representation on emotive and structural grounds.

The general musical theme to attempt was that of a world of all (or at least as many as I could cram in) precise structures, with particular attention to the jagged complex form of the amplituhedron. Páraic also employed the same approach visually. It demanded a barrage of exact forms. Musically this was a lot of fun, and very much in fitting with what I like to attempt anyway, just requiring a greater devotion of time and more attention to detail than my norm.

Most of the 100-120 layers of different sounds were synthesised, each layer comprising a specific aesthetic musically, but with little repetition, so that I could have something like a world of independent forms, related, but each its own distinct entity, all mixed together to push the overall complexity in line with the concept. This included many layers of synth processing - I tried to take each part and force it into new, but related forms. I enforced strict quantisation, trying to keep everything rhythmically stuck to grid, to give that feeling of sharpness and precision despite the mess of many layers.

Páraic Mc Gloughlin

The idea for the Platonic video came from the thought of just how much is going on in one single day.

In the brief, Max wrote "Underneath all of this mess however, it needed a simple core, the constant chord progression." So I thought it was fitting to have a simple core running through the entire video and it being made from one location shot over the space of one day, keeping up with the music’s "messy" energy as the track developed.

Aesthetically I love the mix of abstraction and realism and this was a great place for me to explore this. Using a fundamental image (a time lapse) to mask and cut into, I tried to show the variable possibilities within a limited time span, maintaining the integrity of each individual photograph while dissecting and rearranging the overall image.

In order to get as close a relationship from audio to visual as possible I tried to allocate a certain time of day or shape to each individual sound in the track , experimenting with animated sequences using platonic shapes, and referencing images based on the amplituhedron, later using mats and directly masking over many layers of photographs.

I tried to incorporate and inject a feeling of possibility, the unknown, hidden truths, and what might be.

I wanted the main focus of the video to be on time and space but I also I wanted to have an underlying human element. Choosing a motorway with two way traffic fit nicely, and didn't over populate the scene.

Nineteen hours sitting on a bridge in Sligo town, and a good stint behind the computer and we're done.

10 Commandments from Clim Studio on Vimeo.

10 Commandments is a self-produced project born out of an initiative between Clim and Marta Pale to challenge each other's creative thinking separate from the daily grind of their commercial work. 

The film illustrates the irony of how the "cursed" attitudes of modern society have transcended the archaic rhetoric of the Catholic church.

I just like to make stuff during my spare time. There's something interesting in making Low-fi projects. It’s a way to don’t feel the pressure of the commercial work and to be focused on learning things from the process instead of being too concerned about the final result.

Thanks to Ferran Capo (art), Marta Folch (Photography), Aimar Molero (music) and Blai Barba (sound design).

MY WHALE from TUNDRA on Vimeo.

“My Whale" a site-specific interactive intsallation by TUNDRA Brusov ship, Moscow, 2014

“My Whale” is a site-specific interactive installation by Tundra for “Brusov”, a renovated ship, laid up on Moscow river and turned into an art-cluster. There is an impressive space at the front of the ship, with panoramic windshield and hexagonal pattern on the vaulted ceiling, remained from the 80-s, the time, when “Brusov” was constructed in Austria. Standing there gives you the feeling of floating through the reflections of the Krymsky bridge lights on the river, inside a giant whale head. Looking through its eyes, listening to its songs that flow across the brain made of hexagonal cells by the wires hanging down here and there. With some light and sound we brought this whale to life.

Each piece of the projection onto the cells was cloned from the previous one with a random changes. So each cell behaved differently, pulsating to the rythm of the whale songs. To interract with the whale the visitor could place the phone screen above the black box in the center of the room. Once the phone was above the box, the image from the screen bursted into visual patterns and audio fragments all over the cells, merging the precious moments of your life, stored at the phone, and the whale’s imagination with the speed of light.

Visuals by Alexander Letcius and Alexander Sinica, Sergey Lubashin; Sound by Klim Suhanov and Semyon Perevoschikov of D-Pulse; Production by Bulat Sharipov; Shot and edited by Alexander Sinica.

Peace.

“Hyperjump”

Kinetic light sculpture by Tundra collective. First Cadets Corps, St.Petersburg, Russia, December 2014

“Hyperjump” was created as a site-specific work for one of the halls of the former First Cadets Corps, which is now being reconstructed as a study spaces of Saint-Petersburg State University. The nineteenth-century hall has a sports ground with a basketball court , built here in a soviet time. “Hyperjump” explores the idea, set by this paradoxical combination: the basketball court, representing the physicality, we have from the nature, together with the architecture of the classicism period, the symbol of the human rationality. 25 moving head light beams on a truss stands and a powerful sound system were installed along the hall. While the light sculpture started to move, the electronic light devices came to life, turning into the actors themselves, bringing the light, shut in the strict geometry back, to its unpredictable nature.

OUTLINES from TUNDRA on Vimeo.

TUNDRA’s newest immersive experience is a large scale laser-beams installation which went unseen to public due to cancellation of Outline Festival in Moscow where it was initially planned to be exhibited. As it was specially created for this festival, we decided to name it OUTLINES.

This word has a strong meaning in Russian representing the idea of stepping out of an initial grid and rising above the fundamentals by trespassing your imaginary boundaries.

Special thanks to Alexander Us & Sila Sveta for inviting us to take part in Outline festival 2016. And thanks to everyone who helped us: Dmirtry Znamensky, Isabelle Rousset, Viktor Kudryashov, Maxim Harin, Roman Pechorin, Kapitolina Tcvetkova-Plotnikova, Semyon Zlotsky.

A custom tunnel iteration of this installation will be premiered and first shown to public at Day For Night festival in Houston, Texas, from December 16th to 18th.

POINTE PHENOMENON from TUNDRA on Vimeo.

A few years ago we reimagined the standard of using moving head beams and created immersive sound & light experiences. Now as TUNDRA moves towards new technologies we highlighted the best moments of our moving head light-beams installations from the period of 2014 - 2017 (Prague - SIGNAL festival, Berlin - MIRA Festival, Rome - Outdoor Festival, Moscow - ARMA Festival, Tartu - Linnafestival UIT, St.Petersburg - Gamma Festival & Street Art Museum)

Some of these footages were never shown to public and we decided to put it together in one video titled “Pointe Phenomenon”, where Pointe stands for the main characters - ROBE lighting Pointe fixtures and Phenomenon stands for natural light phenomenon - a concept of our installations when we try to put visitors in the epicenter of immersive sound and light experience.

An Immersive large scale laser-beams installation redesigned for a special launch event. New Jaguar E-Pace was hidden at the bottom of the old Soviet swimming pool filled with heavy smoke instead of water. In the unveiling moment, the Jaguar placed on a car lift surfaced from the clouds of heavy smoke like a submarine and floated on the cloudy waves being scanned by hundreds of laser beams and projectors creating moving patterns across the pool.

Special thanks to Jaguar Russia and Eventum Premo team for giving us total freedom in expressing our own artist's vision in the whole launch event concept.
