This is a still image from the video called A Walk in the City [version 2] - Video directed by Victor Acevedo. Released on Dec 17, 2016
Drummer: Martin Mansour
Walker: Sandra X
Soundtrack by Igor Amokian [aka Chris Holland]
Victor: I first met Chris Holland (Igor Amokian) at the Mandrake Bar just off gallery row in Culver City in about 2011. He was the DJ spinning (as it were) some esoteric but catchy tunes for the Monthly “open decks” VJ nights hosted by Eric Medine and James Fader Cui, co-directors of the then very active Los Angeles Video Artists [LAVA] group.
Later at a regular monthly members gathering, I witnessed one of his presentations on his Circuit Bending work, and I realized that was where he was really at. I was blown away and I knew we would collaborate at some point. Our first collaboration is the visual music work called A Walk in the City [2016]
This video also includes an abstract cameo of one of my oldest friends, Martin Mansour. He is an amazing drummer.
