As planned the first of a range of videos to be released this Summer is ready for your eyes.
Just like everything In The Black Box is working on, this video was created over a long period of time in tandem with the music, and like the music is comprised of a wide range of separate elements that are brought together to create one expression. When I finished Coil and listened to it over and over again I could visualise a busy urban centre, movement and the pulse of human activity. This video is an attempt to synthesise those visions with my everyday experience within the city as I travel into and out of it by train.
In time, like the music, this visualisation may be altered and developed further. I am constantly trying to better my own skills and abilities with both music and video… there is always room for improvement. This video represents my abilities at this moment in time, so although it may be crude in places I still feel it is honest and representative of the development of In The Black Box in the long run.
Over the next few weeks I will also try and upload a few of the older videos from years past, that way it will be possible to see how this visual element of the project has developed.
