Realtime 3d-animation as abstract graphical interpretation of a poem by Christian Melsa.
2003 for Bauknecht

Trocken is German vor "dry", eventually living without drugs. Some people need medicine to keep the state of being dry or a from going mad again. In such a way Zyprexa is sort of an "antidrug" to diminish your fantasy; and finally your creativity. Some years ago Christian Melsa wrote a poem about this feeling, which finally became a real-time demo called Zyprexa.

Together with Rainer (nero) Mühr we reanimated this theme and made a remix using the same 3d-engine, effects and lyrics, but with a new exciting soundtrack and a heavy dosis of graphics design.

It turned out as a wonderful adventure of turning words into images.
