Description:

Ctrl Alt Shift is a smart new 10-minute documentary film by Dean G Moore and Simon Lane. Filmed at several locations across the UK, and using some interesting participatory/exploratory techniques, it assembles the views of various pioneering VJs and audiovisual artists.

Visionaries captured in this mix include: Addictive TV, Alex Wright of Fata Morgana, Chris Allen from The Light Surgeons, Hexstatic, Michael Faulkner of D-Fuse, Oli Sorenson (formerly VJ Anyone), and Vector Meldrew.

Whether you’re already familiar with these faces or fresh to the field, looking for an introduction to the emerging artform, its evolution and impact, there’s plenty of food for thought here.

Ctrl Alt Shift was conceived, filmed, edited and produced by Dean, who is himself a VJ, and DJ/producer Simon (DJ Search) as a part of their university degrees in broadcasting.

They now plan to transform the documentary into an AV show that will be performed/re-mixed live.

Check out this blistering clip from Coldcut’s Eurockeennes festival performance in Belfort, France! Coldcut’s Jonathan More and Matt Black were ahead of their time way back in 1987. And two decades down the line the duo remains at the cutting edge of superlative electronic entertainment. So if you loved (or missed) Coldcut’s Journeys by VJs tour of 2007, when they catapulted sound to another dimension of ‘What You See is What You Hear’, then you’ll love this… Taking video scratch montage techniques to the next level together with top scratch artist Raj Pannu and MC Juice Aleem, Coldcut rocked a sea of heads at the 2007 Eurockeennes festival. Enjoy the re-play! You can view parts 2 & 3 on youtube here: Part 2: Beats + Pieces. Part 3: Jungle Drummer, CanCan, Revolution. Thanks to Coldcut for clips. Words: LRC
