VJ
Actually I only use .avs for portions of the set - usually when Im running around organising the rest of the party!
Im trying to get my hands on a cheap video mixer, learn open gl, build a video library etc - so that I can do alot more. However programs like motiondive, visual jockey, arkaos vj etc are fikn great for mixing 2d effects with video, opengl renders etc.
Has anyone else checked out the zynth demo yet?

Hope no one minds me bringing this up. If they do, just ignore it. I didn't read the initial posts before my reply but I just did then and I almost had a fit.
I am a highly studied artist I have won three significant festival prises. My father is a highly recognised (but not rich)-->(means something) artist that has dedicated is life to it and being bought up by him I have learnt and infintesible amount from him, from when I can remember.
I know that making a career in art is pointless and even if I decided to do that you have to sellout before you can make money before you die ! except for perhaps 1 in a million ppl eg. Like AndyWorhol etc etc. I've always been scientificly minded and I apprecite the work of
Ned Kahnwho is my idol.
check it out and you'll see what I mean. So I'm studing science because it's one of the things I'm good at. Along with art. I'm a more experienced artist than scientist which I've just started. Dont ask what sort of art because there's too many to mention here.
Two things
1. For people arguing about what art is and not one person came up with the correct answer ..(its liable for major argument which has been done for centuries) the consensus and If you care is that ..
Art = an installation dont bother argueing that becuase you may aswell argue that the speed of light is as fast a finely groomed pitbull falling out of a helicopter.
So yes Art is AVS, and if you set up a dining table put an anvil on it then throw up all over it and put a little sign on it called "My vision of night, by Fred Smith" Then it is art. If you want to argue with me you wont win. Wheather you like it or not doesn't matter.
2. Infulential POWER ;;;;;;;
Minimalism ... the strongest force in the artistic universe. Best way to describe in is, it's like using a machine gun in a battlefied where everyone is fighting with swords. It you use it correctly you can overcome and bewilder large amounts of people but then again if you use it wrong you can end up (killing everybody including all your own people, in that analogy ) and basicaly having everyone look down on you as if you are shit.
The reason Minimalism is so powerfull is because of CONCEPTUAL CONTRAST, as far as any artistic concept and other phylisophical concepts are concerned too. The conceptual mechanics are hard to describe in text in a few paragraphs but it's kind of like explaing the quantam nature of leptons. Minimalisim is the best template to start a masterpiece. Minamalismic intent can produe enourmous amounts of emotion, feeling, realisation, and many other states of mind. One of the best hexamples is Orchestra( like movie soundtracks too ). The use of minimalism and then complexity to invoke emotion, or other combinations for different feelings, each posibility of combination for each concivable state of mind .
There are an infinate amount of states of mind - An infinate amount of different forms of Art even in each genrea. An infinate amount of forms of intent. My father said " a blank page has an infinate amount of different posibilites of what you can draw on it". An empty AVS screen and code Has an infinate amount of possiblities of what YOU can put in it.
As far as mininalism is concerned with the white canvas with a black dot, it is a matter of grasping an freezing the state of mind where the initial stages of production are concerned and let the viewer's mind do the rest to where the person viewing, is inclined to go. I could say SO much more but, even a three year old could do that right?.
I'll stop now because I don't know who actually cares about this sort of thing. But if you do AVS and concideryour self NOT an artist then I pity you. There are many other programs out ther specificaly for maths or science. AVS is intended to go along with one of the oldest most popular forms of art

Seriously check out Ned Kahn (search engine) if your interested in both science and art. He made an indoor whirlwind generator (frickken amasing) amongst other things.

If you argue with me, you won't winPretty lofty opinion of yourself, there, VisAg 😉
I think this bears repeating: "Just because nobody understands you doesn't mean you're an artist."
Just something I've spent too much time on .. did you have a look at Ned Kahn??? I rekon you might like his work.
