testing an avisynth script for what you might call a "slitscan filter". slitscan techniques have been used for example by the incredible zbig rybczynski. it's about making movement visible in the image at once, or using the width of the frame as time axis, or something like that... - and this seems to be quite irresistible if you think about what words like "timebased media", "digital video" and things alike could mean.

Singing in the acid rain!?!

[alpensaga]

Wow! I am new into AviSynth, would not have thought that something that elaborated would be possible with it. Would you mind sharing the script with me?

I used avisynth, but you can probably do the same thing (but far easier) with after effect, simply by applying a black-white left-right faded image as time-displacement map. The sound is done with 5 instances of the soundtrack each shifted a bit on the timeline with a different volume (3 increasing 2 decreasing). That can be done with any soundediting software.
