Electric People

Just came across this film clip "We Are Electric" by Fischerspooner  on Vimeo.
What a mad video, an overload of everything obsessing my eye lately - different forms of light, in so many combinations, mixed with out there headgear, mirrors, cool styling and even video screen mouthpieces! Lots of inspiration for a current project as i am looking at lighting options. Credit to Andrew Schneider for that touch of digital dental greatness.

Heavenly Light

Soft projector light lends a surreal, filmic quality to this editorial featuring Kate Moss. It adds another layer to the clothing, reiterating the tulle and angelic hair and yet is also juxtaposed by the hard edge found in elements like the cigarette and graffiti style projections. Some photos show the projection of a film still - referencing beauty and the beast. Almost like the projection of inner thoughts and feelings, ephemera, and a gauzy veil imprinting on the body.

RE-BEL - Film by SHOWStudio

 Shot by Pierre Debusschere and styled by Rasharn Agyemang

Neon and futuristic, this is another exploration into light and a frenetic, expressive journey into a high-tech world. Suggestive of techno textiles, robots and new modes of existence, it is interesting for the atmosphere the work invokes. Shot as a precursor to a new magazine of the same name, the possible applications for film are so far reaching..

I just came across this pic on a website called Bleach Black - UV light from the tanning bed and a great photo. A bit more low-tech than the Herring & Herring images but equally as interesting.

Radioactive Light

A great photographic collaboration exists between Dimitri Scheblanov and Jesper Carlsen, who founded Herring & Herring in 2008. Radioactive uses the one technique to amazing effect, and the neon, glowing garments literally jump out of the image like very cool kids stepping out from the nuclear reactor - or another planet. Styled by Katie Collins, published in Surface Nov 2009. For more of their work go here.

Let There Be Light

UV light, laser light, glow sticks, flare guns, fairy lights, halogen lights, neon lights, projector light, torchlight, candlelight, strobe light, black light, night vision, infrared.....

LIGHT

So many different possibilities and effects. So many ways to affect perception and experience. Light can be emotional, it can cause anxiety, it can wash something out so that only a brief impression remains. Light often means life while a lack of light is dangerous and threatening. Light can also be heavenly and suggest another plane, or it can be futuristic and technology-driven.

The artwork of Olafur Eliasson is so arresting in his experiential projects with light. His dutch/icelandic heritage conveys a fascination with the human condition and its environments, and his installations immerse the viewer within them. This attests to how significantly light impacts on us, and having been to one of his exhibitions i can say that his work truly resonates for a long time after the experience - hugely inspirational. www.olafureliasson.net
