If you are familiar with my trip reviews of Atonal (2017, 2018, 2021), you already know what I do here… if not, here is a little introduction: The following chronicle is a mixture of AV review of the festival, offering my personal opinion over the performances I had the chance to enjoy, combined with or altered by my experiences with psychedelics (mushrooms). The combination of these two, Berlin Atonal and…
It’s been a while… for many things. No concerts, no festivals, limited social life, etc, etc. you know what I’m talking about. Every unusual situation brings with it an opportunity to question what’s important, or what’s the purpose of doing or keep on doing something. Is it that important to attend to this concert or that festival? Does it really matter so much? Should I write this review? For which…
We are in the equator of Berlin Atonal 2018, facing the program for Day III. Something you learn in life is that after a big wave there is a moment to reach the bottom. The higher you get, the lower point you gonna touch later on. That works with drugs, with feelings, with work / art-works, but also in places such as Atonal Festival. It’s like a natural order. So…
If you read already the first part of this review of Berlin Atonal 2017, you already know I'm taking you through an audio-visual journey spiced up with some mushrooms, just to refresh your mind. As I commented in part 1, my vision of the festival, my highlights are extremely a personal choice, and I’m happy that I shared conversations during the festival where other people have different views. Also I…
Here is my very personal review of the past Berlin Atonal 2017, and I say very personal because first, it’s always a personal choice and taste, and second because my Atonal experience is always an inner journey, indeed the original title of this review was "Atonal on mushrooms”. But somehow I don’t want to make of this a sensational thing like a vice-kind-of-article. So first things first, an introduction: Berlin…
The capacity to translate music notes and rhythms into visual forms, generally called Visual Music is one of the crossbreed art concepts that I feel more identified with. Also because it connects two of my biggest passions: Visuals (all kind of graphic expression) and music. Therefor it was a matter of time to write a piece about all this in my blog. Indeed AV Brain Feeder is meant not only for…
As we commented in our previous article about encouragement, beside being artists we are also humans, have a life and is not always easy, the ups and downs, the uncertainty of our time, the struggling, the continuous fight, the society we live in and we somehow maintain… There is many times I felt like giving up, and probably you felt it too. It’s not only about having an (artistic) career,…
This article is meant to be a kind of artist encouragement, a compilation of video stories from other artists to bring inspiration, hope and support for those creative people struggling with their work, with their career. Because it’s known that choosing to be an artist is maybe an easy choice but “succeed” doing it is one of the hardest paths in life. Although maybe we should first check what means…
I usually watch a lot of videos, specially music videos. First on TV, when I was a kid, and in the last decades on internet, mainly in Vimeo. I believe that a good creator has to feed him/herself with as much inputs as possible, from the very same discipline and from others. It’s not just a question of entertain or distract yourself, but also of being aware of what’s out…
