Introduction to the Gallery
As Gertrude Stein said, it is composition that makes everything different, in whatever field it may be exercised. For me, the transition from electronic music to animation is an entirely natural one: both are based on time flow, both are multi-dimensional in various senses of the term, both can be superimposed on themselves and on other media.
After some painting, my way of beginning to work in the visual domain has been to use animation tools, especially those of Cinema 4D, to compose images not otherwise obtainable, and after such grounding to proceed to actual animations. In these I am working with both photographs and my own paintings. In my short experience, the quality of single images, used as "material" assigned to "objects" that move, strongly determines the quality of the resulting animation. I consider the flow of the animation itself as the syntax, with color acting as orchestration.
