Hello all! Last year I created a musical animation based from the beat of Aphex Twin - Girl/Boy Song. You can view the entire animation at either of the links below. Link 1 Link 2 The animation was screened in ResFest 2007, but I wanted to see what true Aphex Twin fans think of it, so let me know what you think. Enjoy -Mike T. |

it comes off to me as a kind of a corporate advertisement. i dont like that camera thing where it shakes and is supposed to look 'intense'. i also think you should have spent more time-matching events on screen to the musical events. the music has dynamics and i think the video should have them too, i dont doubt youve seen --- even though in that video the dynamics/sounds dont match up all of the time (for example there are alot abrupt, quick moves going on when there aren't very many abrupt, quick noises) the thing really captures the sounds and sort of 'dances' to them if you want ti look at it that way. i think your video would be more fitting for slower music with less drumming going on... this is all of course in my opinion -- its your art and what i say doesnt matter. hope you got a lot of good feedback at that festival, oh and welcome to XLTRONIC! |

i thought the animation was brilliant. music was alright, i would have gone for a less spastic track, 'pancake lizard' perhaps. :) |

pretty posh-lookin, but i have to say that girl/boy song wasnt the best choice for tune though |

That was very nice! Overall an interesting interpretation, and it was quite high quality looking. |

Thanks for all the comments. I created this animation last year shortly before my 20th birthday. During that time I was often pondering about life, death, meaning, and inspiration so this piece was sort of a release of strong emotions I was feeling. BUT enough of that sappy stuff! Some have asked why I chose such a fast and sporadic beat. To answer I would have to say that although there was music that would have seemed to fit better, it may have subtracted from the storytelling of the work. I did not want this animation to be an exact replication of the beats from a song. I have seen those types of animations and while they may have a visual appeal they are emotionally dead. |

well, the video was interesting. the tune doesn't sync or fit at all though, i think. |

Nice work indeed. |

how can your animation be so good and your website be so shite at the same time? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
indeed. "seconding that". |
||||||||
|

ah yes, my website is pretty horrid. it is likely because i am a college student who is studying visual effects and animation but have no skills in web design. with no prior experience, i made that website over a weekend some time ago... i apologize if it's shitey-ness offends. :( i suppose i should get on that asap... |
