#034 howlTwo screaming faces (AI-made) wrecked by computing the whole analog video path rather than drawing any glitch: two unsynced cameras, a circuit-bent frame buffer whose address and data lines the drums short out, an NTSC composite signal, a TV receiver that loses horizontal, vertical and colour lock, and a CRT that finally collapses to a dot, over a 124 BPM MS-20 style sequencer bassline, all synthesized live in the browser.#033 trailA black-and-white dancer (AI-made) turned frame by frame into a cloud of points pushed out by its depth map, with a copy of the pose frozen in space on every kick and shutter click and left drifting back; seen from the front it looks like plain video, until the camera swings round and the afterimages turn out to be a long three-dimensional band, like a slow shutter in 3D, which dissolves into smoke on the last bar. 120 BPM dark techno, all synthesized live in the browser.#032 anchorSix 1990s Japanese TV faces (AI-made) — a newscaster, a weather presenter, a shopping host, an enka singer, a child actor and a masked wrestler — with their eyes, nose and mouth cut out as boxes by in-browser face tracking, the look and the face switching on the beat: floating boxes, colour boxes on a grey face, jittering copies, crushed and torn colour, boxes wired together, and a giant mouth under cursor arrows, over 128 BPM breakbeats with a 1 kHz test tone at every cut, modem chirps and a time signal, all synthesized live in the browser.#031 smokeA column of white smoke on black (AI-made) turned into 1-bit dots, with the trick changing every two seconds: video echoes on the dub delay, the column multiplying from one to eight, a spring-reverb wobble climbing up on each rim shot, photocopy generation loss, an optical soundtrack running up the edge, and the dithering method swapping beat by beat; grey ghost plates trail the moving edges and the smoke rewinds on the kick. 120 BPM dub techno, all synthesized live in the browser.#030 eyeA black-and-white close-up of an eye (AI-made) cut into rings around the pupil, each ring redrawn in a different screen (coarse dots, reaction-diffusion mazes, concentric lines, radial lines, fine dots, photo) and turning one way or the other on every beat; the pupil gapes on each kick and the rings reshuffle on the metal snare. 144 BPM industrial techno, all synthesized live in the browser.all →
