Entranced
Posted by Crispy | Filed under Cool Hunting, Events, Videos
An exciting detail to this Friday’s Chillography 202 will be the Entranced demo. Monstro.us is coming all the up from San Franscisco to treat us to a sneak preview of their upcoming interactive music game, featuring music from one of the heroes of the global chillout scene, Makyo. And to bring this full circle, Makyo and his record label, Dakini Records, produce a series of chillout shows in Japan called “Dakini Nights,” which was an important influence in the creation Chillography. 
In their words:
Entranced, a whole new way to appreciate music.
Entranced is a 3D interactive music experience designed to immerse the player in a vibrant and responsive visual landscape, exciting the imagination and creating a sense of rhythmic flow. By listening to energetic World music, observing visual cues, and receiving feedback from the game controller, each player interprets and performs movements that sync with the music. The result is dazzling visual and audio rewards.
Here’s some video of Entranced being demoed at the 2009 Motion Graphics Festival in Austin. I can’t wait to give this a try myself.

It’s taken me way to long to cut up and process the Chillography 201 recording, but I’ve been busily working on it this week. If all goes according to plan, they should be available for download next week. We captured some fantastic sets that lovely day in the park and it’ll be great share them with the rest of the world.

I just uploaded my Chillography 201 photos and videos last night. Here they are:
And here is another great Chillgraphy set from Lara. Apparently there was a baby or two at the event as well.
Success!

That was fantastic! Beautiful beats and peeps groovin’ and chillin’ on the picturesque Seattle waterfront. Thanks to everyone that came out and enjoyed the day with us. I’m not sure how to appropriately sum up the positivity and community that I felt out there, but it was awesome. The only thing that could have made it any better would have been the porta potty that the city had promised us.
I hope you all will join us in the fall for Chillography 202.
The entire show was recorded, so I’ll have those sets up for download in a bit.
Here are a couple of great photo sets of the day:
