Debuting at Inner-City Arts’ Summer on Seventh in Los Angeles this past weekend, the SBTRKT-O-SCOPE — a 3D stroboscope (advanced zoetrope) in collaboration with Red Bull and electronic artist Aaron Jerome; aka SBTRKT.
Drawing on promotional imagery for last year’s Wonder Where We Land, the SBTRKT-O-SCOPE sees a multitude of the odd feline rat creation that stars on the album’s cover — scurrying their way through New York’s skyscrapers.
“Created by BAFTA winning animator/director, and leading zoetrope artist Jim Le Fevre, the 8ft tall and 6ft wide, stroboscope spins at 33.3rpm and is illuminated by a strobe-rig to create the optical illusion of animation. The architecture and tiers were laser-cut to specific dimensions, and the character animated at Nexus’ London studio then 3-D printed frame by frame into physical models.” www.nexusproductions.com
