told:by - mr.shintla of bildstörung live vjs crew

So here you go with the next told:by interview. this time we have mr. shintla from the swiss crew Bildstoerung. Pretty nice guys I've met by the end of 2009 at the Visualisation Festival. Also the heads behind Videopong.net

Q: Where does you'r Artistname come from?

A: "bildstörung" is actually the german word for "image interference" and "phantom image" which is actually quite obvious for a vj crew. the logo with the hatched ant comes from the noise image when the tv-tuner does not adjust to a channel or has a bildstörung (image interference) and one sees only noise. in swiss german this is sometimes called "ameisen-rennen" which translates to ants-race.

Q: What discribes your VJing style the best?

A: By now its very geometric, very few colors, typographic, vectorized, much dark and all hard and fast cut. but this is because we do a lot of dnb and minimal giggs. when we started with goa our style was completely different. but i always liked it more reduced.

Q: Location/Act you ever want to do visuals for and why?

A: I would prefer some kind of a vj wandering (like carpenter do). just go from town to town and play wherever its possible. just a bag with beamer, notebook, midicontroller, v4, kaos-pad, pmp... he he maybe less equipment. but this would be great fun and i will do that some day. and i will use the contacts from videopong.net (our self developed vj footage share and remix platform) to contact local vjs to do giggs with them and get in contact with the users of that platform. that would be really great fun!

Q: Your personal famous last words?

A: ahoi

Q: Who should be the next VJ for told:by interviewsession?

A: As we founded a vj label here in switzerland that consists of six crews it would propose one of them. the guys that have something to say are the guys from pixelpunx.
