Visionaire #60 - "Religion"
Visionaire is a “publication” that deals with fashion and art. It’s a “publication” rather than a “magazine” because it is not always made of paper. Editions, which are limited, have been made of all sorts of things, like wood or patent leather or even a stack of compact discs. For issue #60, "Religion," Machine Head's Creative Director, Stephen Dewey, gave life to the pages of a book turning over. Carefully gathering a palette of sounds from an old library, Stephen's task was to record the sounds of flipping through the pages and the creak of the book closing. "Sounds that seem easy are often the most difficult, but after experimenting with a few dozen books and page turning techniques, I harvested the right sound," Stephen explained. "To help bring the pages to life, I used wind sounds like those from films of the ’60s and ’70s to animate the pages and create a sense of mysticism." After a lengthy editing session, the pages were successfully brought to life.
We would like to thank Greg Foley, Creative Director of Visionaire, for including us.
Machine Head also participated in Visionaire's #53 Edition ‘Sound’ as artist’s.
