Wakersfields - Visual Exploration

[Czymra]

Hello Avalonians,

I've been a bit absent lately, mainly because I'm working on projects and have been very busy. I'm however glad to give this little present to you and hope you can enjoy it.

http://www.wakersfields.com

Wakersfields is a website dedicated to abstract video art that aspires to let you roam in scapes of visual abstraction without being interfered with by words. Obviously, hardly any page can do without words, and you have reached this page to find out what it’s all about.

What?

The Wakersfields videos aim to go beyond representation. There are no symbols, no hidden subliminal messages, there is only a sense of pure matter and its animation that frees the eye from a functional interpretation. In that sense, the dynamics within the flowing matter are the topic of this exploration and Wakersfields thus hopes to discover and map patterns within the flux.

How?

Once you’ve clicked on the large orb at the homepage you will be taken to the latest video. From there on you can either use the “Next” and “Previous buttons to go chronologically through the videos. However, from the bar below the video you will get a visual selection of other videos, which might be a more intuitive way of navigating the fields.
Furthermore, you can follow the updates on the site by subscribing to the feed which is linked to under the watch symbol.

Who?

How about you? Wakersfields would like you to share your vision of abstract imagery. If you have been inspired by a dream or vision and would like the patterns of this to become visible, please make contact and we will try to translate it for you as best as we can. Please note that initially we will stick to rather short videos of around 60 seconds. However do not spare us with your input be it pictures, videos or music that might describe your vision to us. We might even use the material to create the piece.

This is a discovery for Wakersfields as much as it is to you! We look forward to hearing from you.

If you are an artist and wish to help, please do not hesitate to make contact! Wakersfields aspires to expand at all times. Just be sure to meet us halfway on journey within the abstract.

Developing a Language

In the long run, we also hope to be able to map certain dynamics of the abstract in an attempt to see if some kind of language can be coined. For this sake many of the videos are named in a way to describe their movement or character. This is at first subjective but we hope to open this process up to you as we go along in order to find a common denominator. What is to come can be guessed from the roadmap below.

I look forward to seeing you there and/or hearing your feedback (here).

Very unique project....a world without words or sound.

I'll need to view the videos a few more times to get a better comprehension or are you looking for "immediate" response?

Thanks guys, yes it's my work and yes, please do carry the word on.
Kathleen, that's exactly where most of the inspiration comes from so far.
Sound may be a thing to come but it would need to be rather abstract on it's own and is very difficult to handle without covering up the visuals, so none as of yet.
I just published a fourth piece and hope to publish a short piece at least once a week but I need to finish some things for the next week.
Most of the details and plans can be found on the about page by the way.

How was the world when there were no planets, no forms, no matter ?
How did we communicate with one another when we as souls were light without sound?
Do you remember when we were free how we were dancing on the strands of color
and when... all we had to express our inner beauty with were shades of blue, yellow, purple, green, orange , red...
We wove those out of our essence and send them to each others as gifts ..
Your films Czymra remind me of that time... where Love was One vibrational colorfull energy and when we as souls were speachless..

"Sometimes one creates a dynamic impression by saying something,
and sometimes one creates as significant an impression by remaining silent."

Thank you for sharing your peace with us.

Very cool czymra, especially your ideas for interacting with as yet unknown collaborators, which would really expand the realm of random expressions. It's getting more and more difficult to find any new approach to art, especially one that has actual artistic possibilities, but this looks promising.

Hi Czymra,


Fantastic posibilities for all indeed..

Thankyou for sharing same, i look forward to it's progression.
I am intrigued to see your thought manifest .


Love @ light

[Czymra]

Thanks everybody, it's very encouraging to hear your comments. If you have any suggestions on how to further raise the interaction level, I'd love to hear it. I feel that it's a nice and pure experience, but it's not inviting enough, maybe.

[Czymra]

All videos are now available in High Definition. How fantastic is that.
As for collaboration, my time is freeing up now and I would welcome any suggestions or contributions.

Something odd ist still going on about the embed function. I'll figure this out though, and in the meanwhile, if you wish to embed any of these videos on your own page, just let me know and I'll supply the code.

[futureyes]

hey czymra ... finally got around to viewing ... WOW ... this is AWESOME my friend ...

what creativity ... i love it ... for me it is all about familiarity ... places i experience in other realms ... and suddenly ... i'm watching similar in the light of day!

hmm ... you've seemed to capture such a common ground of where i visit ... particularly the journey there and back ...

it's all here and it's fantastic ... watched the first one and thought ... oh my gosh ... how'd he do this ...

for my self czymra ... all i can say is ... wow ... i'm speechless ... i know i know ... i sound like i'm going over the top but when i see here what i experience there ... and it is all so similar ... well hey ...

and when i experience these places ... i do so without sound ... no sound at all ... so i have to say watching these ... particularly radiation ... well no ... all of them really ... i suddenly found my self being pulled into them ... wanting to go beyond ...

glad i was able to spit out some words here to describe what i took from your creativity ... it really did take me from here to there ...

very cool czymra ... what's next ...

Okay everybody, I've screwed up on the feed link for Internet Explorer. Before, if you hit the clock icon, nothing would happen. Now the feed shows up properly and you can subscribe to it with your favourite feed reader or even receive eMail updates.

If you continue to have trouble with anything, please don't hesitate to contact me through www.wakersfields.com/contact and I'll sort it out.

Regards embedding, when you play a video and want to embed it on your own page, you only need to hover over the video and there is an 'embed' button there. Click it and then click on "Copy embedded Code". That is the code you have to copy as an HMTL snippet into your blogging software. How to do this exactly, I can not predict for you as it depends on your platform. If you need help, let me know.
Note, that at the moment, the code still has a link to Vimeo, the service I host these videos from, attached. This link is not necessary and you can remove it or replace it with a link to wakersfields.com.

Lastly, any videos you embed will have a smaller resolution. The high resolution version is only available at wakersfields.

Futureyes, how about you have a read through the about page (the question mark) and consider if you would want to share one of your visions? I really hope I can motivate people to go on this journey with me and go beyond just watching the videos.

Thanks to you all.
