3840×800 was an audiovisual installation built around Blind Observatory’s track And The Flying Saucer and an unusually wide panoramic screen.

The panoramic visuals created for the And The Flying Saucer installation.

Project

The display measured 3840×800 pixels and extended around the viewer’s field of vision. That format changed the basic composition of the work: images had to move across a long horizontal surface instead of a conventional film frame, while the forceful sound gave the installation its physical intensity.

My work covered video design and editing. The piece uses high-contrast monochrome imagery and movement built for the scale and proportions of the installation.

What was created

An audiovisual installation for a panoramic 3840×800 screen. The work combined Blind Observatory’s forceful sound with stark, large-scale black-and-white imagery moving across the viewer’s field of vision. It was designed as a spatial experience, not simply as a conventional music video.

Looking back

For me, 3840×800 was built to be felt as much as watched. The extremely wide screen pulled the images out of a normal film frame, while Blind Observatory’s forceful sound gave the piece its physical weight. Image, sound, and space were not separate layers. Together, they were the work.
