s+v+m Blog - Resource for sounds-visual-movement Rodrigo Carvalho Excellent resource in this blog by Rodrigo Carvalho of VISIOPHONE. In particular Carvalho uses the blog to keep a notebook on sounds-visual-movement topics (like a sister of this blog!) Really great articles on live performance work. To quote: "This blog intends to work as notebook for my research on synergies between Sound-Visuals-Movement, audiovisual interactive systems, augmented realities, graphic representations of sound and movement in real time, hypersensory immersive media and synaesthesia states." His recent post on graphic sound visualisers is just brilliant (courtesy of a facebook post one of the leaders in the field of live audio-visual performance, Max Hattler ) http://s-v-m.tumblr.com/post/74852362487/graphic-sound-visualizers-viii Blog URL: http://s-v-m.tumblr.com/ Other websites by Rodrigo Carvalho www.visiophone-lab.com www.twitter.com/visiophone-lab www.vimeo.com/vis...

Johnathan Gillie's animations are such surreal worlds which animate in the most unusual manner where many things exist at different times and in different spatial locations with their own temporal appearance and disapearance, for his work 'Ways of seeing' he considers the physiological processes involved in the act of seeing itself.

I have just come across the work of Andreas Karaoulanis. His animations are 'stop me in my tracks' beautiful. I have watched some from his vimeo channel, but felt I must post this to keep track of this great work. Why do I like it? The illustrations in a moving collage type style are so rhythmic. The movements and the flat arrangement of objects and cut outs in a formless and groundless space, in fact, the space is just a background colour in many works, is perfectly in tune with the musicality of the music, not just a synchronised beat but a whole mood, style and playfulness that may not even be apparent in the music, if one listened to the music on its own, but emerges with his playful rhythms and arrangement and positioning of independent yet connected to each other graphic elements. This is really wonderful choreography and movement. Biography "Andreas Karaoulanis comes from a Computer Science studies and Animation. His current work deals with interact...
