XNOGRAFIKZ (México)

XNOgrafikz is a small animation & design-collective ("boutique?") specialized in time-based media.
We conceptualize, design & produce animation + live action for audiovisual projects in which graphic communication is crucial for getting across an idea or concept; from TV spots to corporate videos; viral web video to interactive art; from club & concert visuals to architectural video-ambientations.
Our specialty are audiovisual techniques such as micro-edition & micro-sampling: the obsessive sinchronization of animation & live action to the audio track. These techniques are directly derived from the cut & paste ethos of W.S. Burroughs & B. Gysin; they also owe much to Electronic Music & Hip Hop Culture. We record, splinter & scramble. We arrange, compose, loop, sample & sequence.
We live and breathe inside the interzone created by the crossbreeding of graphic design, cinema, and music.
