Nonsense Techno & Bad Habitz

Last weekend I had the pleasure to provide LED visuals for both Nonsense Techno & Bad Habitz at the Kavka Zappa Antwerp.

I must admit that I found more motivation in the Drum & Bass event, compared to the Techno one. I am aware that this is mainly due to my musical preference for Drum & Bass indeed.

It made me wonder if it might be better for me to begin being more selective towards accepting future events, taking into account the not unimportant element that is the one of music genre.

Pukkelpop 2023 – VJ in the CLUB + LIFT

It were long hours (12.00 till 04.00), and the hotel that was offered to me was a bit further from the festival area (35' by electric bike). Together with having to walk a lot between the two stages, this turned out to be a more tiring job than originally expected.

Now, that being said, I did find that the entire Pukkelpop team did their very best to make all my tasks happen as smoothly as possible. Not only the production-, technical-, and stage managers, but also the light- and sound operators themselves, helped me on several occasions.

That made the entire difference for me.

See you next time PKP! ( ▀ ͜͞ʖ▀) ☀

VJ adventures at Casino Blankenberge

After a successful collaboration on Cherry Moon Beach last week at Casino Blankenberge, I was asked to VJ again for three consecutive days.

The weekend blessed me with Yves Deruyter & Friends, FOU vs Tom Leclercq, and Zundays.

It was a lot to take on, but I managed and had a lot of fun. See you next time Blankenberge!

Fantasia Festival 2023

I was asked to VJ on the Hard Style stage that was hosted by MC Chucky and Friends for the Fantasia Festival earlier this month.

Despite the overwhelming heat, everything went smoothly and I had a great time overall. The atmosphere was both positive and professional. The best of both worlds!

3x Aftermovies from recent VJ Gigs

Two months ago, I VJed at the following 3 events. Here are their aftermovies.

  • Next Dimension Apocalypse, Alter Schlachthof Eupen 21st of April
  • Proxic Midnight Club Edition, Area V Hasselt 5th of May
  • Blurrd Unrecognizable Experience, Area V Hasselt 6th of May

Lovely to reunite with the Next Dimension Crew, they never disappoint. The Delta Heavy set was iconic.

Both Proxic and Blurrd enabled me to reinvent craft (once again) by pushing me to my sweet limits.

One 4 star review and a very first film selection for Trance Action Delivery

I'm very glad to share that my Trance Action Delivery film [Student Animation Short] has received a 4 star review by Jack Brindelli for the Indy Film Library.

Although it seems the author slightly misinterpreted the supporters on the music as being the makers of the music instead (I'm the one who actually made the music myself, alongside the animation), the overall feedback written in the review is hugely positive. I'm especially glad with it.

Also quite exciting news is my very first film selection with Trance Action Delivery. It got selected for the Animated Music Video category at the Munich Music Video Awards.

3D Print of Antagonist [Trance Action Delivery]

Semi-cyborg, semi-alien, this antagonist exists only in the digital realm. Or does it?

Unintentional artwork at Central Station

The other day I spotted this malfunctioning screen at the Central Station of Brussels. I felt like I had to record it. Although it is obviously not, to me this looked like it could be coded generative art.

Custom Intro Animations for Retro Empire

I was asked by the Retro Empire crew to design and animate custom intro sequences for every artist, to be played right before they start mixing.

The main theme was 'Poseidon and the Monsters of the Seas, according to Greek Mythology'.

Niels Baten from Moment Creation provided a custom light show to go hand in hand with the animations I created below.

The sound effects and voice-overs in the video's above were delivered by Breakout Audio.

Aftermovies of events I VJed at x3

Recently I VJed at the following 3 events

  • Proxic 6 Year Anniversary, Area V Hasselt 27th of January
  • Blurrd Unrecognizable Experience, Area V Hasselt 28th of January
  • Toxic Noir B-Day Bash, Ampere Antwerp 3rd of February

Every single one of those gigs were enriching experiences for their own specific reasons.

Proxic marked my first performance on a vertical screen, Blurrd took place on my own 26th Birthday, and Toxic made me reappreciate the Ampere club as a safe space to blend with strangers, as it was before pandemic times.
