Koxtrok Presents: <br /><br />AMON TOBIN | ISAM PERFORMANCE <br />Projection mapping [the practice of sculpting video content to match the surface geometry it’s being projected on] is not necessarily a new technique, though it’s rapidly increasing in both popularity and complexity among the masses...making it more difficult for companies producing the content to stay competitive in the craft. Leviathan worked with frequent collaborator and renowned VJ Vello Virkhaus on groundbreaking performance visuals for electronic musician Amon Tobin, creating ethereal CG narratives and engineering the geometry maps for an entire stage of stacked cube-like structures. Taking the performance further, the Leviathan team also developed a proprietary projection alignment tool to ensure quick and accurate setup for the show, along with custom Kinect control & visualization utilities for Amon to command. The results for all have been outstanding: after the show debuted, it was featured in such publications as Fast Company and Wired. <br />AMON TOBIN ISAM <br />Live Visual Experience 2011 <br />Music: Amon Tobin <br />amontobin.com <br />Visuals: <br />V Squared Labs <br />vsquaredlabs.com <br />Director: Vello Virkhaus <br />Producer: Anastasia King Jaress <br />Lead TouchDesigner Artist: Peter Sistrom for "Lost & Found" <br />Animation: Emilio Sa for "Slowly" <br />Animation: Carlo Sa for "Machine Gun" "Bedtime Stories" and "Horsefish" <br />Animation: Dave Foss for "Nightswim" <br />TouchDesigner Artist: Bryant Place for "Surge" and "Dropped from the Sky" <br />Visuals: <br />Leviathan: <br />lvthn.com <br />Creative Director: Sam Gierasimczuk for “Piece of Paper” and “Go to 10” <br />Creative Director: Bradon Webb for “Journeyman”, “Wooden Toy” and “Kitty Cat” <br />3D Animation: Jody Evenson, Katrina Nelken, David Brodeur, Blake Cartwright, Dan Tiffany, Jimi Filipovski, Dave Pasciuto <br />Compositing: Tim Sepulveda, Erik Jensen, Chris Beers <br />Design Development: Derek Weglarz, Gareth Fewel, Aaron Edwards <br />Editor on "Goto 10": Daniel Ryan & Vello Virkhaus (VSL) <br />Programmer: Adam Berg <br />Producer: Brandy Olsen <br />Assistant Producer: Krissy Estrada <br />Executive Producer: Chad Hutson <br />Executive Creative Director: Jason White <br />Chief Scientist: Matt Daly <br />TouchDesigner Consultant: Jarret Smith <br />Stage Set: <br />Production Designer: Alex Lazarus <br />alexlazarus.com <br />Set Designer: Heather Shaw, Vita Motus <br />vitamotus.com <br />Set Construction: Stefano Novelli <br />Live Camera Documentation: Ashley Hughes <br />Promo Edits & Live Cam: Mathew "Smitty" Smith <br /><br />http://www.amontobin.com <br /><br />Follow Koxtrok on Twitter: <br />http://www.twitter.com/koxtrok <br />Follow Koxtrok´s Fan Page on Facebook: <br />http://www.facebook.com/koxtrok.official <br />Make yourself at home : <br />http://www.koxtrok.org
