Una entrevista por skype para la revista CONTRATIEMPO, FMEL Chicago.

Cuando me invitaron a participar en el Festival Electrónico de Música Electrónica FMEL en CHICAGO, me contactaron de la Revista CONTRATIEMPO para hacerme una entrevista por SKYPE, hablamos de tantas cosas que no sé cómo le hizo Catalina, pero quedó muy bien resumida!

Para la 4ta edición del FMEL Chicago realizé visuales en tiempo real como Vj Thai  para diferentes artistas como LATINSIZER (Static Discos), KAMPION (Static Discos) feat. Anthony Macías (Enchúfate), CHICO SONIDO (Latinlover), Turbosonidero Futurístico, Zuzuka Poderosa.

El artículo “VJTHAI: EL ARTE DEL PERFECTO ERROR” se publicó en la Revista Impresa y ahora la puedes leer url en este link en ISSU.

La Revista Contratiempo se ha convertido en el epicentro de literatura y cultura hispana en Chicago que potencia la expresión artística de la cultura latina.
Gracias a Catalina María Johnson, Stephanie Manríquez, Charly García y Ricardo Guzmán.

ABOUT_

In this festival I had the opportunity to do what I love the most, to travel and to improvise live visuals with total freedom. I got an invitation from the FMEL Chicago to do various live performances with Mexican electronic artists, to work for the very first time.

For the Static Records showcase with Kampion and Latinsizer, I listened their songs a few days before the show in Chicago city, just to have an idea. I didn´t want to have any references to their visual style, so I could create only based on the music. The sounds kept echoing in my mind, looking for images in my internal hard disk, and so they try to come out at the live performance, where I get to meet the artist at last while performing.

To visualize the live act of Latinsizer, I tried to create visual atmospheres, using a lofi aesthetic and a bit of vintage science fiction, inspired maybe in the original version of TRON the movie.

Video recordings of obsolete games to create visual sequences, remixing digitizing errors, and a bit of what I like to call Mexican glitch, are some of the futuristic effects done with the primitive techniques that I love.

With the Live Performance of experimental video and free improvisation, one is in the searching for moments of synchronicity between music and visuals. It is an  exercise that requires intuition, some kind of telepathy and a fun attitude to project a multimedia experience.
