Verdomme I'm going to Amsterdam again.

Surprise surprise, who woulda thunk it? This time I'm going to den Haag babyyyy which means I'm going to Kunstmuseum den Haag. (I've been to the Rijksmuseum four times I've had enough for a while sorry)

Michael Raedecker is there. I'm going to scream he's so cool. He studied fashion and apprenticed in Maison Margiela, he started adding thread and textiles to his paintings.

He got shortlisted for the Turner Prize in 2000, after winning first prize in the John Moores Prize Exhibition at the 1999 Liverpool Biennale. Sick.

Listening to him in a podcast, he is such a down-to-earth painter. He is interested in painting. He wants to figure out what painting means, how he can change it and play with it, but not to revolutionise it or do something groundbreaking, he's just fascinated by the craft. His work does not try to spoonfeed anyone, he's exploring imagery and allowing us to do the same.

L: Room 4, 1997, oil, acrylic, veneer and thread on linen.

R: Destructive Superstition, 2004. Acrylic and thread on linen.

Frisson, 1997, acrylic and thread on linen.

'Michael Raedecker’s paintings engage with craft tradition in a sophisticated way. Self-consciously bordering on kitsch, frisson personalises the genre of epic landscape painting. His vast mountains, created through layers of generously poured paint possess an icing-like texture; the trees are made of thick wool, stitched with rustic gusto. The sparkling highlights glitter in the snow from embedded lengths of metallic twine. Through his folksy technique, Michael Raedecker draws intimate connotation to his sublime theme: he portrays this vast emptiness with the cold comfort of homeliness.' - Saatchi.

Has a concurrent exhibition in the city centre, unsure what I'll get to see in den Haag. Won't have time for both as my trip is quite short this time, but I'm glad I'll get to see any of his work.

PODCAST: A Brush With Michael Raedecker

Notes:

SEES HIMSELF AS AN OUTSIDER FROM PAINTING as someone trained in fashion. Used as an advantage. Earliest works informed by work of Winston Churchill – an ‘unpretentious Sunday painter’ who wrote Painting as Pastime. Laser printed reproductions of churchill’s work, pigment transfer technique onto canvas, added thread. Used knowledge of architecture and surroundings. Modern landscapes emerging from empty cold gloom. Idealistic images from interior magazines, with strange architectural anomalies. Explored portraits, still lifes, and all manner of paintings. Humdrum/lightweight subjects, imbued with psychological tension – done for fun, as an outsider. Images transferred and fragmented across canvases. Scenes steeped in cinematic ambience and aura. ‘The liquid uncertainty of paint.’ Intention and accident.

Thinking ahead like a chess player, an idea that becomes a sketch, but a layer of unpredictability should make you adaptable, use your intuition and be in a flow, to adjust into a new painting that hasn’t been made before.

Printed elements hitting thread, hitting painting elements. More depth in his work simply from the amount of workings used.

Plays with chromakey greens or blues.

Plays in photoshop – what looks good on screen may not look so well on the painting. Lo-fi techniques in printing – two layers on top of each other- won’t know intensity and saturation of colour – so he makes demos – works with these demos later, they’re essentially sketches – but they still get displayed. Smaller versions of the ‘real’ paintings. What is a real painting? A painting is supposed to be unique, here we have two versions of the same thing, up to the viewer to decide which is the better one …

Different painting languages in the same painting – flat colours, covered in texture. Thick passages of paint in some areas.

Thread contrasting flat sky.

Fake fur used, cut with fibres falling into the canvas, painted over – placed in a timeless space. Distressed appearance of the canvas.

Radiate, 2024. Laser printer pigment transfer, dispersion, acrylic and thread on canvas.

Modernist architecture ideal – houses have been around for a long time, though they are still part of today’s culture. Timeless. Sufficiently generic to engender all sorts of meaning. Trusts the viewer to add meaning to the work, or take from it what they want.

Instead of direct references to known architectural places. Familiarity lures in a viewer, and then they’re left to their own devices. ‘You need to leave blanks and open spaces.’ Note: stop spoonfeeding the viewer.

Using thread and embroidery – penetrating the canvas, and then you have to come out elsewhere – it’s easy to make straight lines – ideal for architecture. a 'stupid' technique - straightforward and uncomplicated. Makes painting more than just paint on canvas. Investigated painting as a historical medium, in relation to a sunday painter's approach, where there is no agenda, and one creates for the love of painting. Raedecker created a corner to paint in, introduced this 'wrong' non-art technique in combination with paint, and like sunday painting, it didn't have an ideology or agenda.

Deliberate perversity, a wedding cake painted, imbued with a sense of dread. Testing his own ability to make a painting out of something so familiar, or saccharine things. Connection and connotation with a wedding cake, for example, what do you imply by making it look like its past its sell-by date?

His great grandfather created the WW2 monument on Dam Square.

Facing the Balrog Game Intro from Quadro-Chave Produções se on Vimeo.

Speak the right quotes at the right time and in an appropriate voice pitch

Facing the Balrog is an experimental VFX minigame, that put the player inside the virtual environment of the interactive experience, with references to a fantastic world that we love so much. The game is designed for people to have fun with pose detection, speech recognition and audio analysis features. All this without using expensive equipment, just use a webcam and a green or blue cloth like chromakey

HTV publicity material for mini tv series "Sky" (1975)

A young time-traveller with superhuman powers is stranded on Earth after running into a Black Hole. Pursued by the evil Goodchild, Sky is helped on his quest to find a way home by three human teenagers, Arby, Jane and Roy.

The series was one of the earliest exponents of Chromakey effects, achieved with the help of contact lenses and blue make up on Sky's palms.

It’s rather a shame that the 60th anniversary of Patsy Cline’s death in a plane crash on March 5, 1963 came and went with relatively little notice. I don’t even think there was a special CD release or anything. Nonetheless, the “second day the music died” (the first being Buddy Holly’s fatal crash a few years earlier) robbed the world of someone who very likely would have continued to have been a major star for years to come, maybe even up to the present day (as was the case with her friend Loretta Lynn, who left us very recently).

Anyway, while Patsy is rightfully remembered best for her ballads like Crazy and I Fall to Pieces, I actually find myself drawn to the rockabilly side of her work. The fact Dolly Parton is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Patsy Cline isn’t doesn’t make sense. Anyway, Patsy’s studio version of Hank Williams’ Lovesick Blues is rockabilly but when it came time to perform it live on a TV show the country side was beefed up a bit. This is from the early 60s and the reason the lighting looks weird here is they were experimenting with what we’d call today green screen and chromakey - the backdrop on the stage changes as you’ll see.

RIP Patsy Cline

happy Weblog Wednesday, its time for cancan color editing how-to

So, step one is make an animation. I'm not telling you how to do that here. Learn to animate elsewhere. I made this delightful little 8 frame loop, so simple.

BUT I kept each layer of each frame separate, so instead of just exporting that one gif, I exported each set of layers as its own gif. That's 5 gifs total. In order, these are lineart and pink bits, fur/skin, clothes, hair floof, and a extra layer of shading for the floof (which i made very hurriedly and poorly. hence why there's random green bits in there. the hair didn't even need to be green for this i didnt chromakey it)

If I wanted to get real fancy I could've like. Made all the clothing articles separate too, but that seemed like overkill. I do wish I'd made their freckles separate tho, I could've been way more creative with those. Oh well, next time.

Then, I re-lined 'em all up in After Effects, so I could do different effects on each layer! Makes editing very easy. The two main After Effects tricks at work for this video are Track Matte and the Hue effect.

[my full layer list, if that interests anyone. look at all those jpegs.]

Track Matte is how I did the "chowder thing" on their hair. There's lots of ways to get that effect, but this is the easiest I've found. You link the image you want shown to the layer you want it shaped like and it uses that layer's alpha channel, just like the clipping or layer masking features in stuff like Photoshop. The reference layer moves, but the texture doesn't.

Now, the Hue effect does a lot more than just change the hue. It's actually got sliders for the saturation and lightness in there too. The HANDY thing about it is it lets me keyframe these values, so I can animate them changing! That's how I get the colors to nicely gradient from one song to the next (and how I set colors to shift Continuously in an epic rainbow loop for the caramelldansen bit :3) It also means I didn't have to export a separate gif for each song! Like I did for most of Blue's playlist. After Effects make editing gif speed this easy Please.

There's lots more After Effects bullshit that went into this, like the tedious process of making a gif loop properly, or makeshifting a drop shadow by duplicating and blurring a copy of the gif, but I don't know how interesting or important all that is. I think I've rambled plenty. Send me an ask if you want more of this :]

Video is up for reals! Enjoy some party jams and pretty CanCans :3
