Psyche  is an audio-visual experience designed to look at the perception and interpretation of psychedelic vision and sound. Interpretation and perception feature many different layers that are dependent upon individual feelings, experiences and mindsets. Psyche was designed to create an immersive world that looks at the perception and interpretation of sound together in the human mind.

Psyche contains a world of different layers which change throughout the narrative, both audibly and visually. These different layers represent the layers of the human psyche and the changes that occur looking at perception and interpretation. Through the progression of the video, different shapes and actions occur that react to the audio, and become more intense over time. A psychedelic art style was used with a large colour palette to show the variety and totality of the human mind, conscious and unconscious.

The audio component of Psyche was created using Garageband and a range of synthesisers to create an other-worldly effect. A heartbeat sound was used to represent the life and spirit of the mind, and to take the viewer inside the psyche of the video and the personal psyche of the individual. The visual component was created using Illustrator and After effects and was designed to the sounds of the audio, creating a psychedelic visual music experience.

About

I am a designer, currently studying Design Innovation at Victoria University of Wellington. My focus areas are website and mobile media development, interaction design, 3D modelling and animation and audio-visual space. My blog shows my journey through each project as well as my learning experience through university. What do I want to be when I grow up? I have no idea. But I love what I'm learning. Although there have been many bumps along the road in this journey and despite the fact that there are going to be many more, I wouldn't have it any other way.
