23.Mar.2010 Event // Punch Out @ The Lost Leaf
This edition of Culture Shock was done in collaboration with Downtime, the tuesday night downtempo night held at the Lost Leaf in downtown Phoenix.
I’ll be posting a breakdown of how I organized and produced the visuals
16.Mar.2010 Events // Heavy
The theme for HEAVY was construction and urban living. The headliner of the event was Goldie.
Most of the source footage was taken on my digital camera (Casio Exlim Pro) and consisted of driving around downtown Phoenix while the light rail was under construction.

07.Jan.2010 introducing… vj ghostmeat
I make music to visuals in my head. Always have. I’ve thought doing so “professionally” (or at least with other people around to share my work and interpretations with, heh) would be pretty fun so I’ve been chipping away at it. I use to make visuals for PHX DNB but they were just looping dvd’s with pre-mixed video, many of which was my own creation (via after effects ect). Here is an example of what that looked like:
The theme of that party was “construction” and urban grit and the headliner was Goldie. The construction footage was taken by myself with assistance from MechSoul. Actually he did quite a few clips in this particular set so I cant take all the credit.
Anywho, that was some time ago, like 3 years. Last month I was invited to participate in a new night in Phoenix called Culture Shock and here is a video of the performers that night with visuals Mech and I made in the background:
There is a Culture Shock event going on this month: Friday January 22nd @ Yucca Tap Room. It will be my first LIVE vj attempt. I just purchased my first controller actually. And I’m in the afterglow of geekdom.
I felt like sharing

Strip away everything of yourself that is conditional — your name, your relationships, your language, your acquired knowledge, your body parts — and what is left? Nothing is left except a point of awareness. Since it is independent of all that is conditionally you, your awareness is identical to my awareness and to everyone else’s. I don’t mean identical as in “separate but the same.” I mean identical as in “one and the same.” I am you and you are I. We are the same being taking different points of view.
