Shempi Vis from Patrick Gunderson on Vimeo.

This is a demo of a music visualization I made in flash. This was recorded in real-time.

I love using music for data vis because the spectrum contains copious amounts of organized, yet seemingly random data.

The music is Shempi by Ratatat who have an album coming in June http://www.ratatatusic.com

Here’s something new: A video of a flash program performing audio spectrum analysis. This was recorded in real-time.

The music is Scala & Kolacney Brother’s “Creep”.

First post in quite a while. I’ve been playing with processing and should be able to start generating images very soon (this is still flash). I did manage to abstract out the motion algorithm though which I think will make for some interesting new graphical patterns. Stay tuned.

I’m thinking about how to add even more levels of viewability to some of my work. This is a self portrait in the vein of Chuck Close. When viewed from far away, the face becomes apparent, but as you get closer the texture in the sweeping lines takes over.
