Spike Solutions is a project by Jacob Niedzwiecki, an ongoing series of screen tests based on generative compositing techniques. The video in any zone of the left half is sampled (from that same zone) from the video in the same location on the right half. All the clips start at a random point in the same source footage.
All the videos start almost in sync, with a slight offset, so you can see movements ‘ripple’ from the bottom right to the top left in the grid. As they play, a stochastic (fancy word for ‘random’) process gradually jumps individual clips forward in time.
Made with Processing. Uses Lee Byron’s Mesh Library.
Music is a vintage 1969 EMS VCS3, from Twenty Systems by Benge.
