9pm / MUSIC :: PERFECTION PLASTIC :: VISUALS
:: TIND (thisisnotdesign)

CONCEPT :: High-tech is a machine continuously enhancing
our perceptions and accelerating our progress as civilized beings to
the point where it even surpasses us, directing us towards the chaos
of its dependence. Like a drug without pity, it drags us through the
dark depths of cyclic hypnosis, the basis of simple and primitive frequency
spectrums where the word “civilized” loses all sense.

Entertainment, in the first part,
will be provided by the sound frequencies of progressive techno and
emergence of hard-tech by DJ Tomas Smart, accompanied
by the rich and also chaotic visual frequencies of VJ Kas.
In second part the music and improvised environments
of Perfection Plastic will carry us in a world where technology takes
a rather dark and sinister role with the assistance of the visuals technologically
imperfect of TIND (thisisnotdesign).

TIND (thisisnotdesign) wwww.tind.org

TIND (thisisnotdesign) is a video art group
from Montreal active since 2001. It is formed of many VJs, video artists
and photographers. TIND’ style is mainly based on the visual
textures created by the errors found in video compression, interferences,
bad video signals and video feedback. This texture accumulate itself
in layers and then create a blurry space between the abstract and the
figurative world. The visuals are always based on the rythms of the
music and the music is also inspired by the visuals…
