Glenn Marshall – The Nest That Sailed The Sky, Computer-generated Visualisation 2009
Glenn Marshall does something that few video artists do – he makes abstract videos, based on generative processes, that are full of beauty and wonder.
His work is almost a visual analogy to Brian Eno’s work with generative music.
This is his video for Peter Gabriel’s The Nest That Sailed The Sky.
Details on Marshall’s video below. Read more…

Details at Mattox’s site.
This is a music video by Glenn Marshall for Peter Gabriel’s The Nest That Sailed The Sky.
“I was asked to develop the ’story’ further, and got some visual ideas from looking through photos from the original OVO album shoot,” says Marshall. “I got three extra visual ideas from this – single cells, an empty nest, trails of red berries.”
Marshall’s work is very abstract but is also very sensual in its use of shapes and color. You can see more of his work at his Vimeo site.
Let me know what you think!

This is the most musical demo I’ve seen of the cheapster DIY Gakken SX-150 synth.
On the video, I’m using Ableton Live to send midi data to the processing sketch using a Network Midi connection on the Mac. On windows, you should be able to use Midi Yolke to accomplish the same thing. Then, I make sure that the processing sketch receives midi on that same virtual midi connection and sends the data through serial to the arduino. So, depending on your system configuration, you might have to tweak the Processing sketch a little bit to make sure it is reading and writing to the right midi and serial ports.
The flow of data from the sequencer to the synth looks like this:
Ableton Live => Virtual Midi Connection => Processing Sketch => Serial Port => Arduino => DAC => SX-150
The SX-150 is turning out to be a great platform for hacking and learning on; if you fry your kit, you’re out the equivalent of a couple of pizzas.
