Acousmatic: Vera Ivanova; Directed, cut, camera: Andrey Nikolaev; Starring: Natasha Sych; Styling: Danila Polyakov; Producer: Oleg Rozenthal

The acousmatic composition «Melancholy» (2001) was created in Moscow at the Theremin Center (http://theremin.ru). All sounds in the composition are derived from the pre-recorded voice of the British singer Judith Caplan, while she was performing vocal composition «Un~Now» (a setting of Daniil Kharms poem of the same name in English translation). Both compositions («Un~Now» and «Melancholy», which is the second part of «Panic. Melancholy»), have received prizes at international competitions (see detailed information at www.veraivanova.com).

One of the phrases from the vocal compostition «Un~Now» was the main source of both inspiration and sound material (which was modified in several computer programs): «We're melancholy, we think and languish». This phrase reflects the emotional content video, created by creative director Alexey Gabilo and director Andrei Nikolayev - a state of somber reflection of a creative person.

As an allegoric image, melancholy has found its embodiment in works of many visual artists. One of the most well-known works is the engraving by Albrecht Dürer «Melancholy I» («Melencolia I», 1514), which depicts a winged woman, sitting motionless in the center of the image, and holding a compass in one hand. One of the common interpretations of this image is an allegoric representation of the power and limitations of the human mind.

This is just amazing, I'm a huge fan of your work!

love everything about this video. I was just wondering, what editing software/suite do you use? if you don't mind me asking that. I'm a photographer, and am REALLY interested in making a fashion video, I'm only a learner, and want to know more about producing a video, I know it's very dificult to do, much harder than taking a photo, but it's so interesting, and the outcome, is worth all the hard work.

Hope you reply, much appreciated,

Ryan
