The Golem Diptych Video Painting

click to play in QuickTime / mpeg-4 video for iPod / or direct streaming at blip.tv

.

A short experimental diptych-voodle (aka dooble-voodle) featuring 27473 by two animated frozen frames. The Golem Diptych is a Video Painting once captured as two simultaneously shot long takes in Venice, Italy - 2009.11.06. Every single by two frame is now painted. The true beauty of a Video Painting Diptych resides constantly in its single by two frames. Thus this beauty recedes by the cinematic animation/automation of the video - like a Golem and animated, the moving imagery can never leave the singularity of the frames by two and hence recites the painting and beauty all over again - in each singular painted frame by two. The Golem Diptych is inspired by / and uses the work of Anchor Méjans (The Golem Variations - sawed-off cello sample), Speck (the golem calm heat variations cooling test) and rocavaco (From square till round) - all available and very much audible at ccMixter.org.

"A Thick Complementary Adjustment"

(Anonymous quote on 'DoubleClick')

A short experimental lunch-break-voodle featuring most certainly the major properties of a(ny) construct: it moves and can be moved. View the actuated motive moving imagery not entirely like it was captured in NYC/USA - 2009.09.23 - and reflect on the sound accompany of bradstanfields 'peacearoundtheworld_click_120bpm.mp3'. Double Click on the frozen frame and you'll understand what it is that sets the boundaries for all movement...

Who's to blame?

Well, we blame 'em all... the weather and rain, politicians and sparrows, cars and economists, boredom and talent ...but most of all we blame her... and Canada!!!

.

A short and partly experimental docu-voodle by moi and bk featuring the search for content and the answer to it all. View what was captured in Oslo, Norway - 2009.10.03 - and try to make sense out of it... yet, lucky are those who do not try... they're the lucky ones... always, and by all means. Just listen to teru's 'hey kid / billy goat stomp' and you'll might get the hint.

On Burnouts And Architecture That Must Blaze

click to play in Quicktime / mpeg-4 video for iPod / or direct streaming at blip.tv

.
…

We want architecture to have more. Architecture that bleeds, that exhausts, that whirls and even breaks. Architecture that lights up, that stings, that rips, and under stress tears. Architecture should be cavernous, firey, smooth, hard, angular, brutal, round, delicate, colorful, obscene, voluptuous, dreamy, alluring, repelling, wet, dry and throbbing. Alive or dead. Cold – then cold as a block of ice. Hot – then hot as a blazing wing. Architecture must blaze.

Excerpt from ‘Architecture Must Blaze’ (1980)
Coop Himmelblau; Architecture Is Now.

.

A short experimental docu-voodle by bk featuring OMA's tvcc/cctv burnout captured in Beijing, China - 2009.05.08, almost three months after the blaze took place. It's a necessity for Architecture to blaze, but it's a poignance to see it burned out. Soundtrack overlay 'apocolypse outro' by Neurowaxx (ccmixter.org).

A not too short experimental voodle featuring a long-take captured in Chur, Switzerland - 2009.04.11 - as some sort of enumeration and calibration of and on the content in the previous post. Shooting from the hip is how a voodler copes with l'air immobile, and hence histoire d' becomes his sleuhting of all the heavy suspects there are. View yet another body and space morphology full of subject(s), object(s), figures, abstracts ... and character(s) - all at some time contextualized by DrFox' "Throat Singing Kargyraa Long Drone in D".

L'air Immobile

click to play in Quicktime / mpeg-4 video for iPod / or direct streaming at blip.tv
.
A short experimental voodle-voodle daydreaming on body and space morphologies of the common sort... pondering about why the results of all sportive events never are quite the same although the participants do practice year in / year out, day by day... wondering why some things move and some never do... why it is that air can stand still while heavy wind-casts are causing a headache... Immobile air is nothing to write home about - it's home as it was captured in Khur, Switzerland - 2009.04.09 at 11:59:00 until short after the 12:00:00 train passed by. Before the final is decided - AIR LOMEG want to express their gratitude for the runaway! Spoken words recorded by AIR_LOMEG on location, soundtrack overlay 'L'air immobile' by Anchor Méjans (search for more of this on ccmixter.org).

Still Blind Voodle Hunting Head

A short experimental (because first we do, then we see) voodle by moi & bk featuring a blind edit of what once was captured in DogA, Oslo, Norway - 2006.11.28. text to be added... lomeglumiere # 058 " content lumiere" (quicktime / flash / mpeg-4) included... not that it really matters... content is not provided... and what you see is what you construct... this is an automatic voodle... text should be added tomorrow... blind cut-up footage... blind like most of the voodles so far... you see what you see when you see it... soundtrack by biosphere recorded on location... needs a comment too... remember to establish links to records of a life-installation... body and space morphologies are unplanned or accidental (blind and coincidental). This voodle used two minutes and 12 seconds in the making and it takes the viewer exactly two minutes and 30 seconds to view it (if you just view it, that is). This voodle uses crapy footage from way before voodle time and like many voodles it has not the slightest clue what it all is about. Text to be deleted or changed soon...

Desire As An Act In Concert

click to play in Quicktime / mpeg-4 video for iPod / direct streaming at blip.tv

.

A short experimental docu-voodle by moi reflecting on the refracting but nevertheless sound motility that acts in perfect concert but does not (or does it?) understand its own musicality. If intuition is knowledge - and affection (and/or instinct) are its tools - then the voodler only cultivates what nature already... did. What is and what is not yet, will then be equal and of the same kind - and the only thing that remains, is for 'us' to be like she who voodles in silence and articulates in her very own cultivated nature what otherwise is without musicality... and hence remains mute. View just another 'daily altered phenomena' as it was originally captured in Oslo, Norway - 2009.01.27 - accompanied by essesq's 'winter song' (ccmixter.org).

On Video Sketching* and Body Takes

.

* To draw;
Make a drawing; make, formulate or give a description of an (your) absorption; take in, also metaphorically, the representation of an (your) absorption/attraction
* To doodle;
Make a doodle; draw aimlessly
* To paint;
Make a painting of; paint (colour) an absorption/attraction; apply paint to

.

Your intuition alert and with ‘Vertov’s subjective camera’ in mind; investigate in the properties/nature of body as the nude. Use the video camera as sketching tool and try to capture the properties of ‘body’ by drawing it, doodling it or painting it.

.

Your awareness is focused on:
The body/nude only – the body/nude as a still (n; akt). The body/nude as an object/matter of mass, volume, surface, form, shape, etc. The body/nude as the undraped human figure in art. The body/nude as the starting point - and an expression (of yours). The body/nude as being a resistance, receiver, absorber, etc.

.

You will not focus on:

The model as a person – the personality of the model. How the body is taking up space, how it is placed within the space and how it is grounded (standing, sitting etc). Sound/audible information.

A&F; MoBaS #2 – Fall 2008/AHO

.

A short experimental docu-voodle by bk featuring two simultaneously shot videos of a new doing* captured in Oslo, Norway - 2008.09.02. The second ever produced dooble-voodle shows in two frames two artistic and very different views on the body as the undraped human figure in art and hence proofes again that no views ever can be the same. See the classical lumiere to the right and the novelty of a video-sketch to the left - both for the sake of the dooble-voodle enhanced by digital means and very audible talents (soundtrack 'the dancers' by ccmixters onlymeith).

On Spectators and Grainy Views

"Who will close my eyes for me?

When my last exhalation slips out unseen

No BPM left inside the machine

The piercing wink-out of a CRT screen-

Who will close my eyes for me?

Dust gathers on glass

Reflecting personal effects

Fingerprints and water remain

Bedside of what used to be

Who will close my eyes for me?

“Rest” is a verb; impossible now

“In peace” is subjective

-How can meat get upset?

Terrible solemn tenderness

As bald as lust,

As stark as an empty stomach,

Older than speech-

The frozen silence swells to fill the heart

Of the unknown one

Who will close my eyes for me."
Close My Eyes - duckett

.

A short experimental docu-voodle by bk featuring "a" spectator's interlaced and grainy view on the unfamiliar/familiar... or the mere reflection on his own personal effects? Welcome, associative viewers, associate with the spectator and the incident captured in Oslo, Norway - 2008.08.17. - and make up your own mind... but know that; you're guilty anyway! To 'close my eyes' is not an option - it never has been - but it sure is effective for the view presented (colab frozen silence remix featuring duckett)!

A short experimental docu-voodle by moi featuring her view at work and a northern sky in fire - all captured in Oslo, Norway 2008.11.26. Gurdonark's 'I'll Touch the Sky' (excerpt) is a promise not kept and thus vital for the ambience... essential even, probably.
