H2EEF 7 Listening With Your Eyes with Jean Detheux

In this episode, we explore the idea of "visual music" with artist Jean Detheux, who has a unique approach to marrying audio and visual material in his films. 

Differing from the likes of Oskar Fischinger and Norman McLaren, Detheux rejects the idea of animation in a traditional sense, making the whole cinema screen into his canvas on which living paintings emerge before your eyes. 

Regularly collaborating with musicians for live performances, he aims to create a dialogue between music and image and a whole world into which the audience can enter.

Check out over 300 films and "sketches" as well as documentation of live performances on his Vimeo page at https://vimeo.com/jeandetheux
