Event Horizon began three years ago as a collaboration between a talented group of human creators and resulted in an experiment with generative AI. The clip explores how live action performance and physical space filmed in high-definition video can be reinterpreted by machine thinking. The innovative outcome speculates on the experience of being sucked into a black hole, from the perspective of both humans and the algorithm. “The Event Horizon video clip is about the disintegration of time, space and corporality, and the porous relationship between humans and technology. My videos often work with emerging technology but generative AI is particularly unknown, inviting questions about authorship and obsolescence that we are yet to answer.” The concept behind this video was developed in late 2021 as a filmed live performance - part theatre show, part music gig - commissioned for a VR music festival. After 18 months of covid interruptions the music festival was abandoned, and this video was salvaged from the lost process. This video clip only reflects the collective faith of a group of artists creating art through a global pandemic, it tracks the stalled advent of the VR era, eclipsed by generative AI technology.

Go go. The surf's up. For the summer. For so, for so long, it's been summer. We go so slow. Got the breaks on. (Gossamer trails) we're gone. You're heading, we're heading, down the wrong road. Leave you to play your game alone. Dive down. In the deep deep deep crystal sea. Grow below. Feel free. In the deep deep deep deep crystal sea. Summer the water is cold. Sum summer we're getting old. Sum summer dripping in gold. In pure light. In pure light (tell them I'll be back soon) Diving into the ocean womb (this time next year) Slide into an emerald room (diving for you) Born into.

‘Nature Calling’ is a 360० Virtual Reality Music Clip for the latest single release by Naarm / Melbourne musician and electronic producer Louise Terra, Co-produced and Directed by visual artist and film maker, Rachel Feery. Combining Feery’s interest in immersive cinema and Terra’s fantasy pop lyrics, this collaboration is imbued with the otherworldly and hyperreal. Premiering at Testing Grounds, the video can be experienced via virtual reality headsets, allowing participants to become absorbed in the game-play of Terra. Set in a series of desolate landscapes, akin to Mars or an impoverished Earth, We follow Terra’s journey, soundtracked by a score of deliriously hooky vocals, pounding rhythms and atmospheric synthesisers. ‘Nature Calling’ follows the journey of Terra, an intersectional, freedom, fighting, cyborg, who is depleted yet driven and challenged for her survival. Her futuristic combat wear, is stylised out of post-consumer-waste and made by artist and fashion designer Rachel Jessie-Rae O’Connor. In ‘Nature Calling’ there’s a duality. We see the connection and divide between our real and virtual selves. The simulated landscape of Terra’s world is alien and hostile, yet the scenes of her inner struggle are intimate and familiar.
