HAVE_YOU_GOT_VISUAL_?

Optickle creates unique movie collages by mixing images from computers, DVD players, cameras and other video sources. By using Optickle's own video sampling software Visulator and scratchable DVD players (Pioneer DVJ-X1) visuals become as flexible as music.

Since the mid 1990's the Optickle VJs (video or visual jockeys) have been involved in many audio visual projects. Using its own or found footage Optickle develops customised visuals for corporate costumers and artists.

Optickle has been touring the world with musicians and DJs and is the promoter of several club nights (Mouthwatering, Turnhalle Tanznacht). Optickle visuals are used as interactive and moving sceneries for theatre, literature and art performances.

Optickle can turn an empty venue into a flabbergasting audio visual playground. For special events Optickle broadcasts live footage. The Optickle DVJs can also be hired as a human jukebox with a selection of video clips from more than 30 years of pop music history.
