Transforming Music into Images: Voodoo Circle @Karlsruhe, DE

Introduction

My name is Alejandro Castellanos. I'm a nonprofessional photographer studying Mechatronics in Germany. My greatest passion in life is M U S I C and everything that has to do with it: from playing the guitar to designing the circuitry of a pedal. Being an engineer has made me used to observe, analyze and quantify. I have been taught to systemize my life in order to achieve the maximum efficiency, constantly searching for the option that maximizes the output. I am formulaic, periodic, clyclic... almost a machine.

Music is a way to feel human again. Its the vehicle through which humanity pours back into me. Its the only way that I can feel my body connecting with my S O U L, and thus, feeling as complete one can be. One cannot quantify or mechanize art, because it breathes in a different dimension! One thing is sure: it can be appreciated. That's what this blog is about: Feeling the music, trapping the moment... Transforming Music into Images. Making it possible to experience a simple note, or a beautiful harmony, all inside the constant limits of pictures.

Voodoo Circle @Karlsruhe, DE

Date: 10.12.2011
Venue: Europahalle

Voodoo Circle was the first act to come on stage for the Knock Out Festival. The German/English band reminds me of the early days of Yngwie Malmsteen, when he was part of the Alcatrazz ensamble. Their fuse of power metal, heavy metal and neoclassical solos give Voodoo Circle an interesting aproach, There stage presence is amazing! They know how to turn on a crowd that eagerly await their favourite band. Its a very good band to watch live, so don't miss them when they hit your city. I hope you like the pics
