“As above so below”

Hear is a glimpse into our mural productions after dusk

It’s a 64ft long by 10ft high mural all done in spray paint.

Using multiple programs we also create many layers of digital content to project a never ending algorithm of hypnotic visuals to explore a psychedelic journey.

To see this mural in its natural form check my last 2 posts.

This is where the story of the inward quest took root.

Every great transformation must begin somewhere
and the truest place to begin is searching within

@cryptichive has been undergoing a metamorphosis of its own,
one that grew from its current state..

‘Dawn of the Chrysalis’

More info dropping over the coming weeks.

It's amazing to see what we can create with some scrap wood and the best people. The Portal at @wickedwoodsmusicfestival leveled up again <3

Thinking back to the little art installation @aaronbrowntattoos and I put together in 2020 is a real trip, we had no idea it would evolve this far. This year I couldn't help but overhear the conversations throughout the weekend about how the Portal was their favorite stage, not just at Wicked Woods...but favorite festival stage PERIOD. Feels good man.

Big thanks to everyone believed in the project and helped us push through the growing pains....builders, performers, DJs, VJs, lighting, sound, dancers, WW management and more..

this years lineup curation was insane work, was impossible to leave the stage > big ups @misfortunecatdubs x @illustrator_lwl

Here's some highlight clips i managed to record over the weekend :)

Shambhala is the magical home festival for so many people and the magic was strong this year! It was super inspiring to see so many homies growing into different roles on the farm either performing for the first time or getting those dream crew positions. So good.

I was lucky enough to work on 3 projects this year: stage visuals bringing @lionitaspice & @hoola_and_the_gang 's vision to life at the @the_living_room_stage , a collab moving mural at the @grove_stage with @liammonahan_tattoo & @maniktattoo and the projection mapped Cloud Gate entrance to downtown with @spark_tart and @atfroyo. Pics and vids within!

Big thanks to all the artists, performers, sound bois, stage directors, lighting & laser crews, volunteers and all the hidden staff who pushed thru after a hard few years to make the festival really shine this year. <3
