Style
I started VJing in 2003 after being introduced to the topic by my friend, the digital artist, Marius Watz.
“My style can be expressed as intensively colorful compositions with rhythm based animations of images and particles combined with a modest amount of video loops. I try not to continuously fill upp the whole screen with graphics in an attempt to illuminate the feel of a square screen. I work mostly with my own material that occasionally gets mixed up with stuff from the lost and found department. I like programming my own modules for Modul8, my favorite VJ software.”
Mike is one of the people behind the Swedish VJ Union and he is also involved in the Pixelvärk festival and the Pixelache network.
