about

Black Sun Prism is an audio-visual series, featuring collaborations between Black Moon Howl and various musicians and visual artists from around the country.
The goal of the series is to explore and reimagine how to live music and live visuals can interact - that is, how to make the visuals react to to the music in real time. Since both the audio and the visuals are performed live, the visuals also influence the creation of the music in symbiotic real time.
Black Sun Prism Vol. I (featuring the title track here) is the first Video Album to be released from this live performance series.

Black Sun Prism was funded by/conceived as a project for Mish Granted: www.themishawaka.com/mish-granted/

VISUALS
Black Sun Prism Vol. I featured live visuals by Mark Franz: markfranz.org
Mark used Resolume Arena V to mix and edit video clips on the fly in response to the live music. This process of non-linear editing, combined with live effects that responded to audio triggers, utilized archival footage that highlights the value of labor and the laborer. In this way, it is responds to the history of psychedelic visualizations that promoted the laborer as hero during live music performance.
