Barcelona

[Walsh]

Hola

Lo siento no escribo en Espanol. I am currently learning the language but still have away to go!

I recently moved from London to Barcelona and I am looking to make contacts with VJs. It would be great if you could let me know about nights when you are playing so I can see the work and introduce myself. Any other tips about playing in this city would be welcome.

I write, direct and co-produce my own short films, which are always heavily influenced by music and sound design. My last project was collaboration with Risky Music (Jerome Tcherneyan ? Piano Magic), I wrote and directed a 10-minute film for the electronic track ?Paradox?.

I have done some visual work in London and Germany using 8/16mm with video footage. I am now in the process of putting together a system (digital) so that I can start Vj-ing on a regular basis.

DJs please get in touch, as it would be an advantage to design visuals that work well with sets and playing styles.

I am in the process of writing new footage for visual clips and would love to hear from fashion Designers and actors.

I am also working with my partner Helene on setting up a company called Led Motive. The aim is to promote art within a social environment and encourage communication between art and business. We have put on several events in London and are know looking to start a regular promotion in Barcelona. We are currently looking for a venue any ideas would be welcome, also if any one would like to propose a piece of work please get in touch. As I mentioned earlier I apologise for my lack of Spanish, Helene is away for the next to weeks but will be back in BCN on 3rd of May, she speaks Spanish, French and English.

Hope to hear from you soon

Till then Take Care

Whenever a dorkbot Barcelona is done check it out, a couple of the guys there are VJs friends of mine and they can hook you up on what's going on at Barcelona.

Solly if you can give me any advice about Vj-ing in this city then I will be the one buying the beers!!!

Is catwalk every weekend at Shoko?

Akira_k Do you know if Dorkbot is listed anywhere before the event is held? or will it be a series of mystery phone calls to find the event.

Sorry about that Aira_k, I did get mixed up between the post and thread buttons that led to a little confusion. Don't worry I haven't put any chocolates in the post

To everyone who answered my first ? about a system for ?800 don't feel left out I did post a thanks to you all.

There is a Guy called Juan who did/does(?) visuals at La Terrazza in Pueblo Espanol. An AMAZING place on Friday nights (or is it Sat nights?, I cant remember).

so for sure there's a quite strong vj community arround ... just that club scene in barcelona is not so open to vj installations and budgets ... but there we are for sure ;-)

if u are more into linux development intro video and audiovisual streams, let u fall by c/riereta num 5 in the rawal neighbourwhoot.

... actually i'm leaving outside barcelona crazyness, but still can give some other tips arround ...
