I decided to follow up my recent experiments in monochrome, first building the drawings at 100% opacity, then fading the images gradually and releasing the stills to my memory stick. This time I got Dima to help me with the video editing process and I also added a soundtrack. A kind of faded quality also can be achieved using the transparency slider (the little characteristic overlap marks where the pen curves or draws over existing lines are one of the most intriguing features of Tagtool drawing) but I particularly like the quality of the faded images as the edges of the lines become softened and blurred and also, last but not least, the ability to reorder the stills to make the drawings magically reappear.
The text I made by speaking a few statements into a granular synthesizer – a first experiment using my own voice and text!
