At the moment I'm making short video loops where music and video are synchronisedinto rhythmic repeating patterns.
With these short videos I can quickly try out different ideas. The software I write for these videos is on GitHub.

I like it when the music and the video collage change a normal everyday situation into something new and unexpected.
