Visuals for Luke Howard + Tilman Robinson | Dark Angels EP

The visuals for the Dark Angels EP are a series of studies in flowing, abstracted landscapes. Based on a set of topographic fields, the visuals gradually shift in and out of formation, layered to build slowly with the ambient soundscape. The resulting forms are suggestive of events that appear in nature, evoking the movement of fireflies, glacier currents, and forest fires.

from Luke Howard: The EP Dark Angels explores the shadow and darkness that exists in all of us and our relationships. I took the choir tracks from The Sand That Ate The Sea (sung by Shards) and treated them with a variety of electronic processing, to form the starting point for the tracks ‘Dark Angels’ and ‘Dark Ascending’. The other track, ‘Intermittent Reinforcement’ – named after a pattern in behavioural psychology – is derived from a chamber organ piece from the same record. So, in some sense, this is a remix record, with the exception that the pieces are not intended to be recognisable, and that the remixing was done by the artist.
