Evitceles & Rim Mustafin reflect on architecture and memory in ‘Endless Reach’
Images of buildings from Sofia, Berlin and Perm meet in a lysergic merging via the use of a generative adversarial network, or GAN animation.
Last year Bulgarian producer Etien Slavchev, who makes austere and searing electronic music as Evitceles, joined forces with the suggestively named Spite Cathedral for a split release on Mälmo’s experimental imprint Sound+Matter.
‘Endless Reach’ is the doom-laden opener to that release, pairing dread bass and haunted strings to chilling effect. Slavchev enlisted the talents of programmer and artist Rim Mustafin to create a visual accompaniment, which he created using a generative adversarial network.
