30 Ghosts IV NIN Califaudio Video

Update: New video version 2 added below.

I enjoy getting lost in music. The new NIN album, Ghosts I-IV, is a great soundtrack for daydreaming.

Every time I listen to it, 30 Ghosts IV conjures up images in my mind of various places, times, people, things, experiences, possibilities and abstract thoughts.

For the Ghosts Film Festival, I wanted to create a video that you can get lost in along with the music.

Music for Daydreaming + Visuals for Daydreaming.


Video for 30 Ghosts IV is up on the Califaudio youtube.

Higher quality versions of the video with stereo sound are available for download now:

The hi-res version has much more detail, but the file is huge. Email me if you want it.

Watch the video in full screen mode and cross your eyes like you're trying to see a Magic Eye stereogram image for a cool 3D effect.

I attempted to make this new version sync better with the timing of the music and a bit less straining on the eyes and brain.

The v2 video seems to hold your attention more, but my original idea was for the video to avoid attention, and instead serve as a visual accompaniment for daydreams.

When I view the first version, I tend to zone out and "blank stare" as if I'm looking into or even through the video more than just watching it. Does that make sense?
