Profile Information

What version of Studio Artist do you own?: 4 +

How do you use Studio Artist?: I use Studio Artist all the time!!!! I like to do a lot of layers, region selections, region-fill-as-brush actions with an MSG processor routed through the brush, warping, alpha channel transparency, etc.

I also use MSG Evolver a lot. I actually still use MSG Evolver for sometimes even though it had been pretty much incorporated into Studio Artist 4! :)

I usually make things by generating a series of numbered frames (PNGs) that I then import into Flash, where I make interactive stuff happen.

Lately I have been using 3D programs like ZBrush and Blender and then taking the images & animations I render from those into Studio Artist.

About Me:: I am a multimedia artist and musician. Visually I use Studio Artist, ZBrush, Flash and PureData/GEM the most. In the sonic realm I use my Didjeridoo, Moog Rogue, Moog Prodigy, Ableton Live, MetaSynth, Reason, Digital Performer, PureData, and more. I really love using the Arduino microcontroller in conjunction with PureData, GEM, Flash, whatever else I can hook it up to.

I use VDMX to do live performances where I mix the videos I make in Studio Artist etc. along with my music.

I am interested in Peace and Love for all people on Earth. I try to use my art as a blunt instrument for Peace.

Synesthetic Reactor: A Sound and Video Installation by Thorrific

The Bonesmen

I made this back when John Kerry & George W. Bush were "running against each other". All audio from sepearate interviews with Bush and Kerry by Tim Russert on "Meet The Press".

Made mostly using Studio Artist by drawing bezier curves, and then morphing the three images together... Kerry > Skull > Bush, then I exported the frames as png files, took it in Flash, brought in the 3-D skull I made in Carrarra and Fractal Design Detailer, added some interactivity, then voila, it's… Continue

the intelligence community musiziert mit ambitioniertem sinn im underground, das gefällt mir richtig gut und mehr davon, ja und du scheinst ja bei all deiner "verrücktheit" dein gut animiertes politisch-kulturelles herz auch noch am richtigen fleck zu haben...
so, jetzt reichts mit diesem lobgesang: that's what you get for getting stoned!
machs gut, bin weiter gespannt, max

I thought i would ask you as you have experience of using it...thanks

At 7:38am on November 26, 2009, mark g said…: thanks, it would appear the new version of gleetchplug has a full midi implementation capability..so it could be fun...it would mean relearning to play..but it wd make a cool ambient glitchy instrument!..
