Last year, I had the great experience of working on a series of multimedia works with Pery Burge, during her artist residency at the Thermofluids Lab in the College of Engineering, Mathematics and Physical Sciences of the University of Exeter in the UK. Working collaboratively and sharing files over the Net, we created a trilogy and several versions of four additional pieces, composed of my words and music and Pery’s chromatic fluid-flow videos. It was with great sadness I learned of her death earlier this week.
Here are four of our recent music videos:
*
“Knowing” – a Multimedia Collaboration by Pery Burge and Tullio DeSantis
*
“Being” – a Multimedia Collaboration by Pery Burge and Tullio DeSantis
*
“Cosmological” – a Multimedia Collaboration by Pery Burge and Tullio DeSantis
*
“Antumbral” – a Multimedia Collaboration by Pery Burge and Tullio DeSantis

Here are links to the three videos in the trilogy:

Pery was an inspired and inspiring artist. Her work is full of light and life.

I will admit that I have never seen that type of art before, but I really found it interesting and neat at the same time. I really like how Pery Burge got the colors to blend and flow like that, and with the music it made it seem like the colors had a life to them. The art style I will deffinelty have to look up and follow more closely. Overall I thought they were great videos! I am very sorry to hear about her passing.
I was lucky enough to be the academic lead for Pery’s Artistic Residency at CEMPS last year; it was fascinating to see her take the physical flow processes i study and create art from them. I was hoping there might be other opportunities to work with her. This has come as a complete shock.
Pery was a great artist, as you know, Gavin. We are saddened by losing her but uplifted by the fantastic and inspiring work she did and the astonishing imagery she created. Her work lives on, in us, and online, where it is available everywhere, for all to experience…
I love this piece of art , it was interesting and very unique. If you pay close attention you will notice how this piece of art have different combination of colors and how they are flowing nicely together.
In your art titled, “knowing” I really was taken by the fact that the music and colors seemed to be performing to one another. Almost a dance between two art forms. It was really relaxing. I would have loved more red. The blue was so clean and soothing to me. I however have a think with reds.
Yes, Tami, sound and vision: digital synesthesia…
