the second chilled video




changed a few things round and got rid of the quick flashes, think it works better this time

chilled



I think it needs a little tweaking and i totally forgot to delete the extra crap footage at the end but its getting places.

seductive waves






few more images of waves... trying to figure out how to apply them to each hedkandi range.

Hedkandi




Finally got back to some more hedkandi designs. Just trying to make soundwaves looks as slick as possible.

CMC




These were a bit rushed because my good old lino skills failed me last night. I had intended to cut these images into lino but it really wasnt working. The intention is to go back and redo these posters for portfolio and properly print them.

and here's one i made earlier...

after destroying my £30 subwoofer chris informed me that i could purchase a new cone to replace it from a lovely little electric store for literally peanuts. So with a bit of blue peter magic and reiwiring, some black cardboard and a glue gun (sorry sticky back plastic wouldn't hold) i rebuilt a new and improved subwoofer. Filming starts tomorrow on hopefully the final edit.

more cornstarch

Tried to edit some footage to a song by Battles called Leyendecker, was just playing around again with the starch in the speaker, there's a rather interesting moment when i try to pour the starch into an empty speaker and it refuses to go in... potential??

Messing around with the cornstarch

Just playing around with different frequencies and types of music to see how it mutates. Some especially creepy parts when the bass is just switched over to a low frequency. Enjoy...

Finally jumping around like it wants to eat you

Right bass frequency and the right texture of cornstarch makes it want to mutate and jump right out at you.

2nd attempt this time on clingfilm

Slightly better result, the cornstarch created some interesting results as it reacted differently to different songs with heavy bass. Realized the cornstarch mixture was too watery at this point but it was still a better improvement than the last few times.

cornstarch failing to mutate in a tray

Im not sure if you can make it out but there is some vibrations forcing the cornstarch to move but its very faint. This was the first attempt and as you can see, baking tray isnt the best method for holding cornstarch.

Attempt No.2

The cornstarch finally came alive and i managed not to blow any speakers this time. Took a few photos of the cornstarch mutating, and i have some video footage which i need to edit but will be up shortly, bare with me.




cornstarch madness

Ok first up i attempted the cornstarch on speakers i bought for £8 from the first charity shop i went to in Camden and non surprisingly they blew up after bout 15mins of messing around with different frequencies. I'm guessing it was part and parcel with me not knowing too much bout sound waves. The first attempt was a miserable failure, I didnt even manage to get any footage of it working for a couple of seconds. here are a few photos of the aftermath...
