Visualisation as Art.

I dont think anyone would dispute the fact that visualisation is art, especially when it engages more than one of the human senses.
I have an obsession with music visualisation, because it adds to the euphoric experience when you go and see live music. It can tell a story, engage emotion and even disorientate the senses.

Below is Chris Cunninghams visualisation for one of Aphex Twins track. The visualisation for this song is powerful, energetic and very artistic. There are underlying emotions, themes and narratives in this video that can be interpreted differently depending on the viewer. To me that is art.

In this video you can see various lighting arrangements and visual display that have been chosen and carefully designed for a reason. Matching with the theme, tempo and energy of the music it gives the user an overpowering experience visually.
