#videosynthesis — Public Fediverse posts

For many years since 2011 I've started the new year with a little animation or video. My recent dip into ambient was actually for a backdated 2025 new year animation https://hellocatfood.com/blog/2025/

You can see all of them here: https://hellocatfood.com/tags/new-year/

I published the writeup I did on creating the artwork for @celesteh's EP Basic Waveforms https://hellocatfood.com/blog/creating-the-basic-waveforms-artwork/

Here's the view from my camera. The synthy thing is a video synth. (sorry for the quiet audio, I'll put in the desktop audio once I edit it)

#videosynthesis #weekofpatching

My first day participating in #weekofpatching (day 2). I'm quite rusty so opted for something similar using vcv rack with the #monome grid sequencer, and an analog video synth for visuals.

I filmed a whole 10-minute performance but I'm gonna have to edit and retroactively post about the process on my blog as I'm off to a gig!

I've owned most of my video synth for two years but every few months I reread the instruction manuals for different modules and discover something new. In DWO3 I finally now understand what the RST input does.

In this video I mostly combining DWO3 with Solaire and DSG3.

Also adding in that recent VCV patch for audio.

Working on some hybrid HD/SD video techniques. This required using many cables but the result is that if I have something with a transparent background I can add in some nice analog glitches and effects. #videosynthesis #glitchart #feedback #videofeedback

Made a first go a creating a visuals showreel. I realise that most of what I've been doing over the last two years has been analog visuals and I haven't got any examples of software generative work 🙃 anyway, hire me for your visuals! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZlUBx4hmbc #portfolioday #livevisuals #vj #videosynthesis #eurorack #modular

Last night I took out the video synth and tried animating some of my old blender renders. I might be onto something

I found this video on my computer of a anti piracy campaign from 1992 and decided to run it through my video synthesiser. Its slogan "Don't copy that floppy" warned that if piracy continues creative industries will fail.

Fast forward to 2025 and tech bros are being given free reign to steal from creators to feed their AI slop machines and are being hailed as innovators. Clearly it's only stealing if we do it.

Might go copy me a floppy or two.

Guess who just discovered ntsc-rs! https://ntsc.rs/ I seriously can't believe it's open source.

I still like making my graphics with analog gear but this method - made with Blender and then composited with Natron - is much more portable.

Just received a midi to CV converter and now I can demo how to use Pure Data for some basic audio reactivity yay https://youtu.be/pF9rb0F8apo

As you can see it's a bit slow to update as the data has to go from, in this instance: Tidal > PD > Midi-to-CV and then to show on screen after receiving midi: LZX modules > component-to-hdmi converter > hdmi capture card > obs.

So yeah, lots of latency. Still I can see myself syncing it to a midi device somehow. #eurorack #videosynthesis

I thiiiiink this one was run through a compressor. Or maybe not. Either way, I like it but it's a bit mushy. Kinda just like turning up the saturation in a video editor.

#glitchart #databending #videosynthesis

I have also been taking these animations and running them through some new databending techniques that I'm developing.

Here's one of the synth videos run through a tape emulation plugin. As you can see the wobble and wow/flutter is visually represented, alongside some glitches
