Interview with Kristal Blanco
by Nelson Medina
Italy - 2007
Hi, define me the style of Kristal Blanco
in some words.
Ok, let me tell you 3 letters that means 3 words:
DSM as Digital Stuff Modeller. That’s how I like to
work. In fact, when I started to try to express my
feelings and my emotions some years ago (it was
1999) I begun to use all kind of digital software
unable to decide if one could be better than the
other, but find that everyone could be “right” for my
kind of works. I am a self-taught artist and I still
actually like to experiment different medium, So I
can start with Adobe Illustrator and finish a work
in Painter or Flash! I jump easily between vectors,
fonts, shapes and pics! So it’s hard to foresee the
final results of all my efforts, but, at the same time,

I can tell you what kind of style you
could find in my works: a mixed of
vitriolic sign and angry look for all the
world habits!

music and movies?

films: old boy, snake of June and music with my mp3 player. It gives to
80000v electric dragon, infernal affairs me a real surplus of creative energy.
What is your philosophy
about what graphic design
must be?
Be absolutely yourself! The artist must
take a long and deep trip inside his
emotions and his dreams and try to
contaminate the surrounding people
with the same dreams and emotions
between the images. So my images
are the tool of my inner emotions and

deep and dark dreams.
The situation in Italy is not so good for digital artists. It’s hard to
find art galleries where admire artworks of the most interesting
graphic Italian designers, but there are some very interesting
online magazine like ANTI mag and Fresh Cut magazine. These
magazines would like to showcase great selections of any kind
of visual media, so I hope that graphic design could find new
energy to become really esteemed here like other visual arts.
What do you do when you’re not working?
I always think about my next works…I wake up early
in the morning and, while I’m drinking my first coffee,
I remind myself the illusions that my night thoughts
have give to me. I’m a hunter of news or maybe I
love to draw on what my curiosity could spot

of my aesthetic, rather than focusing on

the actual functionality of the code itself. I knew it was a
sign, but it was hard to say no to the money and promise
of more.
As the web emerged, I decided to succumb to my design
urges. I became an early adopter of “new” website design
languages as they were introduced in white papers, HTML,
JavaScript, etc.
In fact, I got into music quite by accident. It was purely the
geek in me that got me infatuated with guitars, and then
synthesizers, which were a gateway drug to orchestral
music. One of the composers that really inspired me and
got me motivated to become a composer myself is the
unfairly talented multi-instrumentalist Michael Whalen.
When I heard his ‘Great African Moments’, I knew I wanted
to work on scores. I must have listened to that CD 20,000
times in a row.
I became totally obsessed with MIDI technology after
listening to Michael Walthius, and I don’t know whether
to thank him for that or to put in a reservation at a special
place in hell for him.

STyle?
It depends on what I’m working on. Because some of us who
shall go unnamed have trouble believing a single person is
capable of radically different styles and genres, I normally
brand myself differently depending on which I’ve been
commissioned to write, but I think I am safe in assuming
that the suits aren’t reading this cleverly positioned zine,
so I’ll spare your readers of this nonsense.

However, I’d describe my lengthiest whim as dark,
introspective ambient chamber work; using live orchestra
and electronic elements to create a dystopian, falling-
through-the-rabbit-hole blend of composition and
performance. A lot of people have described me as an
up-and-coming Phillip Glass, which I’ll believe as soon as
I see Glass-sized film credits and paychecks.

These 27 tracks were narrowed down from about 50 different

3 sketches a day, no matter how I was feeling. It’s a tribute to my
bleak mood that so many of the sketches qualified as sufficiently
foul.
As for the inspiration for the game, Long Nguyen would send me
countless unreleased videos of the gameplay, screenshots, story
and design documents, which helped me to get into a mood less
about my personal misery and more specific to the game. I’d make
sure that various scenes in the game were the desktop wallpaper
on my system, as well as composing along with the videos in some
cases. The entire process was natural and quicker than usual; I
think very much to do with my darkened state of mind.

I love everything from Enya to Philip Glass, Rachmaninov to Blue
Man Group. I love rock music, pop music, trip hop, experimental
music, noise composition and other avant-garde stuff. Lately I’ve
been listening to KMFDM, Tokio Hotel, Philip Glass, M83, Second
Coming, and random stuff on KCRW. In Budapest I was turned onto
several Hungarian composers that seem to be stuck in my favorites
as well, Bela Bartok and Franz Liszt. One of my favorite quotes
from Liszt is “As a pianist, I was always lucky. You cannot realize
what it means to me to leave the piano. It is like a day of sorrow.”
What a truly beautiful way to see that instrument, and I can see why
he was so attached to it, you can hear it in the way he writes and
plays. And to me this just explains my feelings exactly.

I love dark cloudy days that are almost
rainy, but not. I love cooler weather,
but not too cold. If the day is like this, I
know it’s going to be a super productive
day. It reminds me of ‘half-days’ in my
childhood years. These are the grey days
that inspired me the most and made me
look forward to everything that would
happen.

from Synaesthesia, “Sylphide” by Nykolai Alexander

My absolute favorite is when I’m given 100% creative freedom, and
can mesh with the writer and artists during the process; this is much
like being on the set for a film. I’ve heard over and over again that
when a visual artist gets to hear the music while they work, from
the very beginning, that the project ends much more cohesive than
the usual after-thought soundtracks that are thrown together within 3
weeks of release date.
As for other interesting conditions, if I’m working on sci-fi soundtracks,
lava lamps work best for me, and I have like six, all different colors
for the various parts of the room. If I’m working on darker scores,
candle light is my timeless favorite. I like to have gorgeous artwork
and decorations on my walls.
wHaT do yoU THINk aboUT revolUTIoNarT?
RevolutionArt caught my eye as deliciously fashionable. I’ve always
been into sub cultures, mod communities, forum culture and definitely
the CG and art worlds. While most composers are inspired by other
composers and perhaps written words and story; I am inspired heavily
by visual art and visual emotions. I’m so inspired that if the piece hits
me just right, I can actually hear the music in it, as if it was sheet
music. I’m always surfing the web for interesting art communities,
clubs and magazines. I found RevolutionArt and was very impressed
with the way it was put together. The direction, layout, the community
submission-based inclusion was very ingenious. It’s quite an honor to
be in one of the issues.
