All Day Hey! 2023

Taking a cue from All Day Hey!’s inspiring speakers sharing their knowledge and experience, I decided my mantra for the sequence opening the event would be “show your work.” The basic grid it exposes in its earliest frames is the same one used to compose all the screens that follow. Continuing from the grid, the transitions throughout are all made from various combinations of eight ways a square can linearly enter or exit another square, which can be tiled into an endless array of interesting patterns. And for some extra, quasi-organic energy to keep it all from getting too stiff, I also created a glitchy effect approximating an old filmstrip’s dust and scratches.
