Cuando la Justicia

Cuando la Justicia from lucy benson on Vimeo.

'Cuando la justicia' is an addendum to my MFO + Komatssu performance at LEV Festival 2012, featuring Komatssu's track of the same name. It is a slow-evolving, minimalist, anti-videoclip - that is, I made no effort to hurry-up or really perfect the editing. Neither did I try to condense the hour-long show into 3 minutes. In fact rather the opposite, Komatssu's music weaves it's thread slowly and surely and I wanted to honour this pacing. During my first listen to Komatssu's live set I found myself transported; washed out to sea on a black night; dark waves crashing on an empty beach; the sound of my own breath. I tried to capture something of this self-reflective, dream-inducing quality for the live show and again here, with this special video release for Scheme.

Technically the video is a mixture of programmed generative 3D textures and rendered image animations. Additional image content by Marcel Weber.
