most of the reaction-diffusion sequences were created in Max/Jitter courtesy of (near realtime mathematically/chemically correct open-source code to suit)
some sequences were concocted on Ready
most overlays were the result of copious P55 multiscale Turing noise patterns experimentation, as well as, sonifications in P55
most of the raw sequences were hand craftet & animated/lit/shaded/rendered in 
3DSMax /Vray
the liquid simulation sequences were accomplished in fumeFX /3dsmax

music video for one of my latest tracks called SENSOU, consisting of audio synced cuts, created via various image destruction/decimation techniques incl. simulated slit-scans, extreme timestretching, displacement, datamoshing and scripted luma-based offsets.

displacement -  the reordering and rearrangement of the body
datamosh - the obliteration of being across anthropomorphic strata

a collection of paraphilic dreamscapes via pornographic elements of war & horror. 
pornography as atrocity imagery (of a different perspective).
desire, consumption and information - visual decimation as dissection.
fetishistic fragmentation - recreation, leisure and death.
death of affect - dissociation and responsibility.
chasms of the body - recalibration of physiology.

"violence, like pornography, is some kind of an evolutionary standby system, a last-resort device for throwing a wild joker into the game"
JG Ballard
"the human organism is an atrocity exhibition at which he is an unwilling spectator ..."
JG Ballard 1990
"photography has done at least as much to deaden conscience as to arouse it" 
Susan Sontag 1977

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

they found her up in the coal - they're bringing her down now
here comes a candle - to light you to bed
here comes a chopper- to chop off your head
chip, chop, chip, chop - the last one's dead

it's incredible.
Europe lies dormant..
there's a man with a horse harnessed to a wagon
the wagon loaded with apples
very peaceful...

- the element of crime /Lars von Trier 1984 - 'oranges & lemons' nursery rhyme

i choose Hell .. hell .. is my - preference
hell .. is my - natural - habitat

here's a promo ident in chiaroscuro which i'd made for the Atelier 3-103 organisation as a 'thank you' gift for saving my neck a few weeks ago.
.. just a couple of high density meshes and a bit of mParticle SB dynamics.
i quite enjoyed putting together my impression of the Okefenokee as the soundtrack.

EXTRAWELT - THE INKLING (Official Video) 

made the denial.of.service Nagasaki anniversary August ©2013

"We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed... A few people cried... Most people were silent. I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture the Bhagavad Gita; Vishnu is trying to persuade the prince that he should do his duty, and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form, and says, "Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds." I suppose we all thought that, one way or another. "
Robert Oppenheimer was the director of the laboratory in Los Alamos, New Mexico, and the scientific director of the Manhattan project. Since so many talents were involved it's somewhat misleading to call him "the father of the nuclear bomb", but he undeniably made one of the major individual contributions.
In an interview from 1965, Oppenheimer describes the initial reactions as the fruit of their labors, the very first nuclear bomb (the Hiroshima bomb was the second one), detonated early in the morning of July 16, 1945:
The quote was something he thought, but he didn't say it.
The quote is indeed from the Bhagavad Gita ("Song of the lord"). Some suggest it's a misquote, which would explain the peculiar grammar; but "am become" is not an error but a (poetic) archaism, as in "I am become a name, for always roaming with a hungry heart" (Tennyson, Ulysses). Which in turn might be a trace of French; "Je suis devenu la mort".
Since Oppenheimer was proficient in sanskrit he read the original text, and the translation is his own; I haven't found any other translation with "am become". It certainly gives a certain something to the line, however, and it might had been at least somewhat less well known had it been "I am death" or "I have become death".

“Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds” J.R.Oppenheimer, Trinity 1945

datamoshing & further glitch was mostly accomplished with ruby code & processing.
