1970, Stan Van Derbeek, Moirage

For my Ten Years of YK party, I used a lot of psychedelic imagery behind the promotional text to add a little flavor and motion. The piece that I used throughout the campaign is a bit of abstract cinema from 1970 called Moirage by experimental filmmaker Stan Vanderbeek. His personal history is worth a read through (i.e. he was friends with Buckminster Fuller and John Cage) but I highly suggest just watching his work.

Archive.org has a nice repository of Vanderbeek work, ranging from Fluid work to early Glitch work to the somewhat indescribable.

Watching ambient art installations may not be your thing but I suggest putting these on loop somewhere in your house and letting yourself just enjoy bits and pieces as they appear. Or, go all in, and watch this short documentary on him, which I will be doing ASAP.
