Tristan Burfield- Chromadepth Series. Tea Lounge, Norwich. October 2008

A series of colourful psychadelic 3-d photographic experiments exploring the external depth of the canvas as an alternative to the defacto aesthetic of the flat print. All images were created via a combination of free and commercial software [Ultrafractal, Fractint, Visions of Chaos etc]. To be used in Conjunction with "Chromadepth" 3-d glasses which produce a stereoscopic effect based upon differences in the diffraction of color through a special prism-like holographic film fitted into glasses. Chromadepth glasses give the illusion of colors taking up different positions in space, with red being in front, and blue being in back].

Liza Read's Extinction World (featuring audio by Tristan Burfield) @ Mars and Beyond. February-March 2020

Liza Read's Extinction World (featuring audio by Tristan Burfield) for Mars & Beyond Exhibition @ Bargehouse, Oxo Tower Wharf, South Bank, London (20 February 2020 - 15 March 2020). My soundtrack contribution uses repeated tape loops of pitched field recordings which were sped up and down to produce rhythmic effects (recalling the early primitive tape experiments of experimental electronic music composer Pierre Henry). Manmade, natural and industrial sound sources converge in a timely manner with the intention of celebrating the diversity of our natural world against the backdrop of an increasingly polluted industrial soundscape.The ticking clock serves as a timely reminder that time is running out for climate change.
