Visual art and motion created for "London x Varanasi" by Life Pass Filter.
"Born out of the desire to concretize a concept of urban encounter, "London x Varanasi" is a project that is both graphic and musical, which creates a bridge between two distinct worlds, two opposite.
Fields recordings have been done in both cities.Then these recordings became instruments and finally songs."

Through the recordings, travel notes and memories, I tried to find a link between London and Varanasi : Architecture, skyline, people concentration, water, steps, ghats...
I decided to work with lines, also refering to time and rhythm.
Inspirations : Animation City - Yidan Men / She Dreams Sisyphus – Mixed Media Artwork by Karborn / Rain 025 - Yoshinori Mizutani.
The new skyline is a mix between Varanasi and London architecture. Every monument and piece of the landscape are drawn separately and has a special animation.
