Notes


I made this rather odd creation using video footage I took on my iPhone 5 during a rainstorm and edited it in iMovie. Added some percussion and synth with my keyboard. I called it Jagged crayons because I felt like a kid scribbling on a coloring page. It was the same feeling of rather aimless, but somehow still purposeful, playing around. I find it a quite hilarious creation. I used to make some amateur films when I was a little kid, stop motion and the like: but I have no video editing experience other than that, just wanted to do something fun and out of the ordinary to celebrate Saturday! The musical content is fully improvised in two passes (one for the synth, and then the drums to accompany it.) Tuning is A = 432 hz, and the key is C minor (ish.) The ambient sounds come from the original videos. I also mastered the audio with the LANDR service.** Remember, you're never too old to scribble on the walls with jagged crayons!** Watch the video on @dtube below at your own risk:

Art is not about being good...

It's about having fun!

Fantastic, as per usual :)

Another light-hearted delight, more serious play :) Thanks, for sharing the fun, Daniel @d-pend. Here's an echo, somehow, from a poem of mine that came to mind as I was watching your video:

"Watch the sky darken, hang heavy and low
with the lowering of a world-weary eyelid,
the vegetation, now, a deep matte velvet.
Widen the eyes, raise the head and spirit,
the greenery is radiant with light.

In the mystery of moods lies the mastery of scenery
with a look one can color the landscape.
With a look the parched throat of a canal dampens
wild flowers clamor to arrange themselves."

It's good that you don't have any training. It makes it even better because it brings out your creativity. There aint no rules to bound you. Your mind is one of the most creative on steemit. It can be seen from you music also, poetries also and this video also !!! Great work :D

How you turned such a normal rainfall on your window to such a creative piece. I really admire you ❤️

nice art n vedio like your post 😊

Now that was fun watching that. You have a LOT going on! Well done! The most I've done with video editing is make a kid repeatedly fall into murky water over and over again lol.

hello sir, you share most interesting video. sound quality very good. thanks

Congratulations on your second Dtube and a real groovy one at that. I was waiting for this one. I should have taken some of your old dsound pieces and made a video for them myself. I will try one sometime this week. I had trouble in the past with Dtube taking forever to upload and play but it looks better now.

I know you are just playing around but it gets very psychedelic while still maintaining a pure innocence. Color and music come together to give a soothing feeling.


It looks like rain in North Carolina but what a beautiful place to be.


Thanks keeping us in a groovy mood.

I just followed you. Please follow back @d-pend thanks

Great quote about art. Also, art isn't a competition. I have mixed feelings about art contests and awards. There are no winners or losers.
