shot at 2am off a laptop webcam. 480p. this song is dealing with the grif of my grandfathers death in 2019, the name "lordryk" being the name of his cornish folk band. track four of six off "pleading". ambient album debut.

This compression reminded me of this experiment that someone did with AI where they changed a small bit of the code to a negative and it looked like the AI was "forgetting" bits and pieces of the same image. Ironically, I can't remember if it was related to Alzheimer's. Cool effect though.
thank you for watching!!!! i used no AI, instead i forced a heavy grain through 480p youtube compression to convey feelings of grief (funnily enough very similar to Alzheimer's)
many overlapping layers, the top layer having a colour burn blend on it. bottom layer has a heavy grain, and the middle layer has a colour shift. for the spotlight, i think I used a layer with a white circle that I set to divide. i exported at 480p from a 4k video and the compression adds a lot of the movement from the grain, and then RU-vid's bitrate crushes it further
