Pleasant Places

Tech artwork by Quayola explores the subject of natural landscapes and, with algorithms, display abstractions caused by natural forces:

Titled like the first series of landscapes prints produced in Holland in the Seventeenth century, Pleasant Places consists of a series of digital paintings exploring the boundary between representation and abstraction. Inspired by the work of Vincent Van Gogh, Quayola has returned to the same countryside of Provence 125 years later. The landscapes serve as a point of departure - a pretext to shape an inner motion and vision. Through the misuse of image-analysis and manipulation algorithms, Pleasant Places challenges the photographic image and proposes alternative modes of vision and synthesis. Familiar landscapes - filmed in Ultra-High-Definition - is shown with meticulous attention to details and to the anthropomorphic shapes of the trees. Then, through the use of custom-software, the detailed texture of the foliage is reduced to two-dimensional masses of volume veering towards abstraction. As the outlines of trees and shrubs get blurred, nature becomes dense and almost impenetrable. The resulting compositions remain, suggestively, suspended between representation and abstraction, between the depth of the natural scenery and the surface of the screen. In contrast to this vision, raw data-visualisations of colour and motion information follow in sequence the contemplative digital paintings to remind us what really lies beneath the surface. Pleasant Places pays homage to the modern tradition of Western art that takes landscape as a point of departure towards abstraction, reducing the complexity of the world into new alternative synthesis.

Deja Vu

Fantastic online music video for Kamra lets you put your own face into the surreal visuals, via webcam or photo:

Instead of relying on music-related theories or reasons, KAMRA creates his very own world based on his sensations and intuition. His sense of melody was nourished by growing up during the gaming systems craze, and his rhythm was greatly influenced by electronica music. These two factors form the base of KAMRA’s music. In 2001, KAMRA was asked to be a part of a music creation team called “invisible designs lab.” He has since taken part in the creation of music and countless melodies for commercials, games and company sound logos. Through all these experiences, KAMRA continues to gain new sensations and information also incorporates these into his music.

Highly recommended - try it out for yourself here

ARS THANEA: The Ash

We Created A Bouquet Of Burning Roses ( Boredpanda )

“The Ash” was a simple idea, we dreamed about creating something we have never seen before, something which is impossible to see in the world we already know. It mays sound pretty odd, but one of the first thought which came to Peter’s mind, was a scored archetype of beauty – a figure which still retains its shape – just before a total collapse.
