🎞️ This 11-minute project blends sound and visuals into a unified experience. Musically, it pays tribute to #MarinMarais' "Folies d'Espagne", which you can listen to here:

The second half of this sonic journey reflects my thoughts, influenced by the talented Texas-based Polish photographer Angelika Ejtel, who shared that she has been, at times, "obsessed with the music of - French baroque artist - Marin Marais, especially with the sound of the viola da gamba he played" — .

In the background, throughout the track, you can hear a complete rework (fully accessible on BandLab):

It's a soundscape, with low voices, originally created by a unique artist, in a series of early 2010s 3D animations about the end of times: #DennisCopp. My homage, therefore, goes to this unparalleled Christian #videoartist, fueled by a fascination with Copp's eerie LoFi animations (from the pre-AI era): .

To me, his work is pure genius. It's vintage, robotic and strangely poetic.

Visually, the intense creations of #AntoineDagata, whom I had the chance to meet and engage with in 2018, are always in my mind. I refer here to his use of the #thermalimaging-camera during the pandemic:

.

Strange creations, indeed, incredibly powerful and haunting...

I added something from the #Fauve painters in it.

This tour d'horizon ends with my special acknowledgment of Rolf Forsberg's and Tom Rook's short film #Parable (1964) — — where "a #Christlike #clown [played by Clarence Mitchell] amasses a legion of followers as he wanders through a circus, taking up the burdens of the people he meets, until he finally encounters a cruel puppet master".

I hope you will find as much expressivity in this journey as I have had the pleasure to feel and generate myself!

One remark: the sound here is set up for any basic computer or pocket device. For HiFi sound, stay connected through for a better version to pop up there in the coming times. 🎧

Peace,
