Fifth Artistic Element

Found this artist named indi1288 on DeviantART that takes photos and turns them into digital art. This one caught my eye because it is of Milla Jovovich from one of my favorite movies the Fifth Element. His gallery is massive with his focus on different female entertainers.

Incarcerated Monome Scratch

Primus Maximus (of Digital Dust) put up this video of him using a device called a Monome. He reworks Raekwon’s “Incarcerated Scarfaces” and adds some scratching to make a chilled out version. On the YouTube version, he adds this:

Download our Digital Dust Mix made on monomes here:
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php…

Sampled Skull Snaps drums & El Mitchels Affair horns & Guitar

So I dug a little more to found out more about the Monome and came across this at monome.org:

each is a reconfigurable grid of backlit keypads which connects to a computer. interaction between the keys and lights is determined by the application running on the computer. there is no hard-wired functionality.

and can be used for:

live sample cutters, math simulations, drum machines, generative controllers, tonal maps, games, visualizations.

Yes I internet dig so you don’t have to. Also download that Digital Dust Mix it is nice and now go enjoy the video.
