A look inside our home studio from @king5evening (a longtime staple of Seattle TV) showing the experimental practical VFX we made for @pearljam’s tour visuals, my analog glitch laboratory, and even a special appearance by iO. Thanks @saintbryantv for coming out to see our weird little world! Evening profiled me once before, back in 1998, for a very different reason some of you might know, so it was fun to circle back with them all these years later. You can find the full segment on their site. #pearljam #seattleart #seattleartist #concertvisuals #glitchart #glitchartist #nineinchnails #productiondesign

Wishlist Foundation - a Pearl Jam Fan-Run Nonprofit Organization

A couple of months ago I had the great opportunity to interview Director and Stage Visual Creator, @rob_sheridan for Wishlist Foundation’s interview series, “Candle of Thought.” As you all know, Rob created THE most epic backdrop for @pearljam on their recent #DarkMatter tour.

I asked Rob about the behind-the-scenes process of creating so many of the visuals that complemented the songs that we all love so much. He revealed many exciting secrets about the process. The explanation of capturing Ed’s eye was one of my favorite stories!

Check out the entire interview with Chrissie and Rob on the Wishlist Foundation’s YouTube channel at:

Two years ago today I was in Vegas late at night in a warehouse with @nimblist @imperialmonster @mcdonaldg @joybirdstudios @warmnfuzzy.tv @christopherhgrey running out first projection test for the @pearljam Dark Matter tour production. After two months of prepping and filming, I was eager to see some of our visuals on the actual screen material, with the actual projector, at the actual size it would be in arenas. It would be another month before we had the entire screen set up for production rehearsals, but thankfully @nimblist was able to set up this test with a portion of the screen. It was exhilarating to finally see the visuals we’d been working on at their intended scale, and a relief to discover that they translated extremely well to the projection surface. We left the quick one-night trip with a fresh wave of confidence and excitement that our experimental plan was working, and the show was going to be as beautiful as #PearlJam deserved for their first visual tour production in their 30+ year history.
