Music vibrations. Visualised.
Martin Klimas - What Music Looks Like, 2011
“Like a 3-D take on Jackson Pollock, the latest work by Klimas begins with splatters of paint positioned on a scrim over the diaphragm of a speaker. Then the volume is turned up. For each image, Klimas selects music—typically something dynamic and percussive, like Stockhausen, Miles Davis or Kraftwerk—and the vibration of the speaker sends the paint aloft in patterns that reveal themselves through the lens of his camera.”

BLACK VENUS, Vol. 1 by Maxim Vakhovskiy.
My good friend, Maxim, has finally released the first volume of his Black Venus portrait photography series. He’s been working on this project for many years now and it swells my heart with pride that he’s gotten to publish some of these amazing captures and share his beautiful works with all of us. Cannot wait to get my copy in the mail. Congrats, Maxim!
