ABOUT

‘Life is Sour’ is a colourful, wicked look into modern aesthetics, drawing influences from around the world and the stunning visuals and media pulled from its depths.

Bringing together visuals and styles from post-internet subcultures, movies, western media and Japanese displays, the footage is a vivid and aggressively chill view of the familiar and the unknown. With elements of military nonchalance, heavy anime influences and a life online, Life is Sour is dark, twisted, vibrant and a whole lot of aesthetic.

Crims – Working as a resident VJ for the international dance music event Cold Tech, Melbourne-based Crims first started VJing after a particularly inspiring night in Tokyo. With a life online exploring the post-internet subcultures, Crims works to create a look and feel to match each night’s vibe and aesthetic. Crims has worked around Melbourne and Tokyo, creating visuals and displays that blend anything from dark cityscapes, vibrant anime, grainy military test footage and the more striking scenes of Hollywood.
