Loop 'Fermion' by Ben Unwin
Rob Ulitski - 28th Feb 2022
A lighting technician is transported to another dimension by a 5K lamp in a film studio, in Ben Unwin's latest strobe-feedback-meltdown visual extravaganza for Loop.
In the video for Fermion the technician, played by Alex Walton, is left to clear up a film studio on his own - but instead sets up a light in front of his face, and launch himself into a wild cosmic journey of lo-fi effects and glitchy textures.
Harking back to the early days of the music video format where various effects were tried out for the sake of experimentation, much of these were achieved in-camera on the shoot. It's also a development of the eye-bleeding bombardment that Unwin created for Loop's previous video - and it's strangely absorbing and magical to watch.
But as it warns at the start it does contain flashing images and is is unsuitable for viewers with photosensitive epilepsy.
