This computer animated video began its life as a musical composition.
Using analog video synthesizers, I transduced my music tracks into video, which provided texture maps
for the animation. Digital audio files also controlled some of the 3D morphing in this piece.

This is a helicopter shot for an animation project that hasn't gotten off the ground yet. |
Virtual Impasto
Hardware: Pentium II-400
This computer "painting" was inspired by a real painting done by my friend Anthony Burdin at CalArts. He covered a four by seven foot canvas with red and blue house paint, swirled it around, and then let it bake in the sun until it dried and cracked. It hung in my tiny editing room in the CalArts basement for almost two years. The red walls of the "Devil Room," as it was called, were perfectly complemented by the looming presence of the painting. |

MP3 Gallery
Hardware: Pentium II-400
Commissioned cover art for a multimedia CD-ROM by DMR Diversions, a startup label owned by my uncle, David Michael Ross. He has released several enhanced CDs, each of which features several hours of MPEG-3 music, musician web pages, and standard CD audio. He has also released two CDs of his own music, and was the executive producer for my first CD, The Alchemist's Dream. |

Trance Mission is a video art piece I created in 1997. Most of my work integrates a synthesis of techniques: analog/digital, realtime/non-realtime, intuitive/analytical. In this case, I created most of the imagery with the Scitex DVEOUS realtime digital effects device. The image to the far right is a Softimage procedural texture with XAOS post-processing -- done in the CalArts Computer Animation Lab in 1995. |
