Easterndaze includes a highly progressive imagery to its concept. Not only the conjuncture visual representations of music, but artists who are using technology to travel dimensions.
Kimatica, a London-based creative studio brought the transformation with body projection mapping and strong base sounds of a Gheisha into a demon.
The Glitchy Gheisha keeps people in place and seduces them with blues and reds throughout the entire time of the transformation. Seductive technology meets seductive dancing and costume.
Looking at Easterndaze’s program you can easily get the political breeze and indubitably shape yourself a context. The films are probably one of the most productive celebration of uniqueness and counter mainstream films selection.
Lichtblick-Kino is usually hosting independent actions, being small (32 places) and independent itself (since ‘94). Speaking of DIY, of oppression, of money loss, money denial, independent and beyond public recognition achievements, counter culture and art abstinence, isolation, coincidence, solidarity, rescue, composers of noise, composers of silence through music in context, through sounds of contexts.
