Aidan Sensiba – Meme Remix

In this project, I remixed the “Krab Borg” meme, a clip from the show Spongebob Squarepants in which Mr. Krabs is trying to describe a song to a radio DJ, and his voice has been manipulated to sing various songs. These songs include Africa by Toto, Gourmet Race from the video game Kirby, and several others. The original video was made by Chris Kogos on Youtube.

On the Xbox controller, moving the left analog stick along the x-axis controls the amount of “fractals” the image splits up into, using the Fractalizr plugin. The x-axis of the right analog stick controls the playback speed and pitch, and the left trigger increments the amount of pixelation on-screen, using the Pixl8r plugin. These effects can be combined to make quite an interesting display.

    I think this was said in class, but because of the source material, it can sometimes be hard to tell where the video ends and your edits begin.

    The visual is great and the meme is awesome. I would not recommend this remix to people with photosensitive epilepsy though.

    Excellent choice of meme, RIP Stephen Hillenburg. The visual effect fits well with how the scene is remixed in the first place and overall meshes cohesively, nice job.

    Absolutely insane, the controls are indistinguishable from the video, and that seamless blend puts this remix on a whole different level.
