Lately I have been doing some Video Mapping at the Leederville Hotel, Leederville Western Australia. As you can see in my previous examples video mapping is projecting video art outside the constraints of the square screen, onto an uneven surfaces. By mapping out these extra shapes we can make surfaces come alive.
below are some videos…

Ive been experimenting with Live Audio and Video Mixing using Resolume Avenue. Ive been thinking a lot about what an AV performance could be… Its not music and its not cinema either, it can afford to be something entirely different that draws from both practices. Below you will find some of my live experiments mixed from various full length videos.
Below is an old video Dan recently dug up. Its a Video mapping experiment from around a year ago, Daniel mapped his car and I mapped over my motorbike (mazda mx5 & Kawasaki zx12r)
It was great getting Dan involved because he used his 3d modeling skills on his car to get some great effects. This video was shot on a mobile phone, which explains the poor quality… better stuff next time
The Southbound festival is a two day music festival that always seems to sell out. Organisers providing not only awesome amenities for campers that stay overnight but also bring in some amazing international acts.
As part of this festival I was in charge of providing visuals for the performers in the Big Top. With my small crew (Daniel Moller and Brett Cullen) we mixed, filtered and composed striking visuals from multiple camera feeds and motion graphics.
Musical acts unlike other music festivals were quite broad, everything from acoustic and Folk to Electronica and Hip Hop. They were…
From the depths of my evil computer lab I bring you a B&W Elvis video clips, remastered or should I say reverse engineered, as some psychodelic waste land…
ABOVE: this my mutated version
BELOW: The original version which I haven’t touched, don’t be afraid to play both simultaneously
…just experiementing with whats possible in resolume 3 at the moment. And Elvis seemed like a nice kitch figure to play with.

It’s always great to VJ at music Festivals and Stereosonic at the Claremont Show Grounds in Perth was no exception. Well organised and with a abundant supply of music lovers to soak up the vibes.
above: Short snippets of live visuals recorded on the day. The quality is not great but you really had to be there on the day… besides theres always next time.
Now that I’m back from Christmas Island I can start getting some of the stuff I got upto online…
Below are some unedited live video mixes I made about half way through my residency. They contain footage I collected on the island. Music is from Nine Inch Nails album Ghosts I-IV, its great stuff and its under a creative commons license!
