This is someting that is a little hard to explain, but I’ll do my best. Essentially, a handful of guys from two audiovisual labels called AntiVJ and Crea Composite teamed up to put a mesmerising installation together on the face of a building in Brussels, Belgium. You may be thinking to yourself, “What’s an audiovisual label?” Well, it’s basically analogous to a music label in the sense that it’s a collective of artists that work under the same umbrella. Both AntiVJ and Crea Composite have been described as audiovisual labels started by European artists focused on the use of projected light and sound and the influence it has on people’s perception.
In this particular video, the guys use their heavy duty AV equipment to showcase their artwork. AntiVJ was commissioned by a company called pixlmusic to create this 20 minute piece to be performed twice at night. The content is a mix of 2D / 3D visuals, and also includes a part with map/architecture related projections. When asked about the project, the guys at AntiVJ had this to say:
This project was really interesting on the technical side, as the schedule wouldn’t allow us to produce everything on site as we normaly do, so we had to develop a new technique to do the mapping completely remotely, without calibrations or tests on the actual building before the production.
The music that accompanies this is super creepy yet awesome. It really sets the mood. Kind of reminds me of the Men in Black opening theme music. Let me know what you think.
