Vj 1mpar is a project from the designer, musician
and digital artist Henrique Roscoe. Abstract shapes and vetorial
drawings make the basis of the project, that, apart from most
VJs, doesn´t use a camera to record the footages. All
the videos and animations are selfmade constructions, built
entirelly on the computer, or drawed by hand and scanned.
The machine is always present in the themes, production and
execution of the footages. Random and interactivity and key
concepts for the project, that has the intention of making
people question the man-machine relation, its interfaces,
besides valorize the aesthetic side of the videos.
