dna-film
in cooperation with Paulo Pereira : computeranimation/video, 1:39 min, 2008
intro
DNA-Film shows pulsating black and white structures. It's based on an artistic translation of DNA-sequences, which are interpreted as the twilight zone between being and nothingness. Granularsynthetic picture and sound bits are following each other, collide and merge.
By measuring the average luminance within the single frames, a structure was found to generate the sound that is directly referring to the picture.
