"The Mouth Licking What You've Bled" by Meshuggah is one the best high-intensity pieces of music ever constructed.
I sourced the video from the performance of "The Mouth Licking What You've Bled" from Meshuggah's "Alive" DVD of a concert played in Montreal...
I took the Alive DVD's version of Meshuggah's concert footage for the performance of Pravus and extruded it bit-by-bit into a digital alembic, using a magnetic resonator...
170 hours to render the AI FX and afterwards collaborated with Edvard Hansson, Meshuggah's own lighting director, to enhance the visual FX, blending, lighting and coloring.
It's been a little over nine months now and I thought it was time to revisit one of my favorite songs and videos with a brand new render using new tools and techniques.
I ran the original low-budget music video through a computer model trained on paintings of HP Lovecraft stories and HR Giger Biomechanical art to produce this new visual interpretation.
