The Brooklyn Mirage is an open air music venue with panoramic video projections lighting the courtyard walls.
In 2018 I became the visual lead for the space, leading all visual operations for multiple shows every week with up to 5,000 attendees each.
In 2019, I designed and rewrote the visual systems from scratch, creating a modular multi-GPU VJ app in TouchDesigner. This allows operators to work with computationally expensive generative visuals, like smoke and fluid simulations, in real time at 60fps over a 21,180 x 1080 resolution canvas spread across 16 projectors. I worked with visual artists 404.zero to integrate their generative TouchDesigner pieces in a custom plugin format, and extended this idea to support integration of Notch content.
I directly vj’ed for acts like Bonobo, Carl Cox, Hardwell, Jamie Jones, Guy Gerber, Seth Troxler, Tale of Us. I also created custom visual content and systems for clients like HBO, CityFox, Rezz, Anjunadeep, and Octave One. I frequently incorporated my own generative content, primarily consisting of GLSL shaders to simulate things like liquid, or biological systems.
