DESCRIPTION
Images have always played a crucial role in the alchemy
esspecially where they were depicting quintessential
elements of life and nature. With graphical programs
abstract forms were made and with the aid of virtual reality
applications these were given the movement from one to
multiple dimensions of depth. This led to several
image-sequences, which in one way could reflect the quest
for the essential form of things as experience, but in
another way, this quest for the essential form of things
could be regarded as an action:

A guiding principle for the music is on one side the
meaning/content of the images and symbols in the video, on
the other side the pure material appearance of it. The sound
colours of the music are related to the visible colours: so
can the colour Blue be clearly identified as a
voice/choir-like sound with a suggestion of spaciousness;
deep, dark sounds to be associated with Brown -the Earth;
White  can be recognised by the use fundamentalless rustling
noises at the end.
