I am working resolution independant so I can deliver artwork in print, film, HdTv and any other formats. OPTICAL MATRIX
I performed my artwork all over the globe. 2004: creation of a multimedia Festival called "OPTICAL MATRIX" - got big attention at major promoters worldwide. here a clip from our 1st OPTICAL MATRIX EVENT IN St. Petersburg:The slogan of the OPTICAL MATRIX Festival 2005 was DJing was yesterday!
beside the term: musicbands are oldfashioned two slogans created to confront the music industry with the logical next step in show, performance and entertainment. The DJ of the future is a DVJ and the musicact of the future is a multimedia act. VJ PERFORMANCE
My goal in visual perfromance is to achieve perfect audiovisual symbiosis and my VJ styles are ranging from "minimal mindblowing" to "fully 3D synchronized" Special sets can produce a real live Performance whereby all visuals are created from Live camera pictures. These livepictures are also mapped onto 3d objects and shaked 2 the beat in realtime. Beside his artwork I am proud father of Taisha, Arian & Alexander . . . .and i miss you very very much mrs.
