hypnotica

On November 8, 2021, the hypnotica team created a massive multimedia show to commemorate the Historic event – The Victory Day in Azerbaijan!
The project was translated into reality thanks to the professional organization by Amapola Exclusive Events and the high-level work carried out by dreamlaser.
The show was broadcast in front of 50 thousand audience and at the same time all federal channels live streamed the show to make it possible for the whole country to watch it as well.
This multimedia project was unprecedented in terms of the amount of viewers during the live stream in Azerbaijan.
The hypnotica team dedicated this project to the memory of the Azerbaijani all those who have given their lives for the freedom of our Country and for The Victory Day 🇦🇿

To commemorate the grand occasion of the Greatest poet and Philosopher Nizami Ganjavi’s 880th Birthday a Multi-Media Show "Nizami" was created based on his famous work “Hamse”.
The project happened thanks to the consistent and diligent work of Amapola Exclusive Events and our hypnotica team with support from the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Azerbaijan.
The video mapping projection turned out to be exceptionally bright and vivid thanks to the professional work of dreamlaser
Exclusive musical score was created by Farzaliyev Farkhad and Катя Брук
Tens of thousands of viewers (!!!) could see the project for two days and each demonstration received prolonged applause and aroused great interest among the audience.
At the moment, this is one of the largest and technically ambitious multimedia shows ever produced in Azerbaijan!

YARAT 10IL / MULTIMEDIA SHOW
Hypnotica has become a part of a grand celebration - the 10th anniversary of YARAT Contemporary Art Space by creating a video mapping show dedicated to the main activities of the organization! On behalf of all the creators of the project, we would like to thank Aida Makhmudova and the entire Yarat team for trusting us and supporting our artistic freedom in making this project!
We decided to take as the basis of the project five fundamental areas: Art, Sculpture, Music, Photo/Video and Installations. We have worked on each of these topics in such a way to give the illusion that the architecture of the building itself reveals the plot of the show.
In the "Art" part, rich brushstrokes smoothly cover the entire facade, the same way an artist covers the canvas with paint colors. In the "Sculpture" part, we integrated Niyaz Najafov’s sculptures. They materialize from the stones of the facade and turn into a composition. In the "Music" part, the entire facade is reveled to demonstrate a spectrum of audio reactive 3D surfaces, which bend and deform under the frequencies of music, thereby visualizing it. In the "Photo/Video" part we decided to show the formation of images in the camera lens thanks to the light penetrating into it, which travels through the structure, slides through numerous lenses, and leads to the creation of an image on the matrix. In the "Installation" part, we created a construction that appears out of the facade, and is visible to the audience from different angles of view, in order to show the correctness that this -at first glance- abstract composition has in its form. Each part ends sequentially with for each letter of "Yarat" name, thereby forming a single storyline that permeates the whole show and leads to the final part.
In the final part of the show, we created an epic scene based on the idea that Time is fleeting. The ten years of Yarat’s existence leave a mark on the History of Azerbaijani Art!

OUTSIDE THE BOX - is a project created in collaboration with saxophonist Narmin Israfilova and hypnotica with great support from A+A Events!
This project is dedicated to the theme of the free flight of thoughts, fantasy and consciousness, regardless of any limits that circumstances, society, and sometimes we impose ourselves...
Throughout the project, we can observe how the boundaries of space expand and the simplest forms evolve to the whole galaxy, gaining freedom in infinity accompanied by the musical composition written and performed by Narmin Israfilova.
We express our gratitude to A+A Events Media Park for the provided support in the technical implementation of the project.
Thanks to Фархад Фарзали (Farhad Farzali) for professional Sound Mastering and Анар Курбанов for their help in filming the entire project!
