Ericailcane, DEM and Will Barras Create Animation Blindly
Tuesday December 01, 2009

Ericailcane, DEM from Italy and Will Barras from the UK, created an animation to accompany the music that was being written at the same time by three musicians – Om Unit (UK), Tatsuki (JP) and Tayone (IT). These six artists worked in the same city over 4 consecutive days, but never saw the final result of each other’s work until the last day.

When everything was brought together for the final showcase, no one knew what it would look and sound like together until the show started.

Originally silent, they’ve made short edits of the animation synced with music from the live show to give us a chance to see some of the incredible stuff the guys came up with.
