Brian Welch, Beats

Weirdcore works closely with artists to create live performance visuals. This includes classic a/v style visuals (futuristic coding and geometry). The programming is tightly timed to the music.

Weirdcore also creates dynamic 3D environments which constantly shift in form and subject. Brian Welch's film Beats contains a segment of Weirdcore's work. It shows rapidly changing frames of microscopic cellular structures.

His work on live performances has also included live distortion of people in the audience accompanied with diverse, chaotic material.

Hamill Industris portfolio

Hamill Industries and Floating points have been affiliated through their audiovisual works. Hamill Industries works using new technology and ideas to create diverse multimodal installation pieces. They often push the boundaries on how creative outcomes can look and feel.

Videos such as Anasickmodular represent sound reactant visuals which have diverse colour and form, the likes of which are often projected at live performances. Below are pictures from Anasickmodular and Floating Points' live performance at Printworks club, London.

The visuals represented are often a/v based. A practice which I will look into in the future. As it uses non cinematic practice to inform how it looks, it is somewhat irrelevant to what I am exploring except for a contradictory approach. However the topic greatly interests me and will further my knowledge of multimodality in music.
