music video
For ‘Winds’ I collaborated with Jack Single to create a colour palette and capture footage of fluid acrylic paint, to be used as the source for motion and colour.
The clips were then fed into Houdini where Optical Flow and POP dynamics were used to extrude the footage into 3 dimensions.
Pat: “There is a concept in music called 'reduced listening', that describes the method of listening to a sound as pure sound, not thinking about what kind of object may have created it. We just hear it and observe it like some unknown object. There are so many interesting moments in the video where I start seeing things less as paint and more just as abstract forms, creating this valuable (but unintentional) link between the sound and image.”
