Chris Crismond and I made a bunch of crystal animal totems and geometric forms to house vj content for this years main stage at Rainbow Serpent. The idea was to break up the rectangular led screen and let the content sit harmoniously amongst the voronoi stage decor, rgb lasers, lighting, sails and flame throwers. I made some cool shaders in touchdesigner to render highlight passes, IOR and crystal effects. We could also color follow on the geometries and send different hues into the eyes which would occasionally emit audio reactive beams of light (which the crowd seemed to like!). Although it was really simple, it worked amazingly well with Sphongle, Astrix and Hallucinogen. I'm hoping to develop my concept further because the result looked great and injected some subjective matter to suit the psychedelic aesthetic of the stage.
