Colt Jenders Tuna Mind Melt Collab, Part 1
In Cortextual Crustacean Receptors, three separate pieces converge into a single synergetic stream of consciousness. Crustaceans and dancers appear to be communicating, often with eerily synchronous movements. Yet any and all visual synergy occurs only through chance, and deliberately accidental alignment.
Footage from the Osaka aquarium is superimposed over decade-old forgotten footage of dance performances. Both visual timelines showcase in-camera editing with no post manipulation other than computer-generated filters, also layered purposefully at random.
Tuna Mind Melt’s experimental ambient music also parallels, merges, and counterpoints the juxtaposed images, though this soundtrack too was added without pre-meditated or post-manipulated timing.

Colt Jenders Tuna Mind Melt Collab, Part 2
(Due to file compression the sound in this video is compromised)
Behold this interpretation of a Japanese primordial test-tube journey into the oracular life of fish large and small. In homage to the psychedelic era, Auto-Aquaramatic Hallucinogenome explores the mesmerizing, somnambular, and sometimes pseudo-volcanic underwater life at the Osaka Aquarium. Mainly edited in-camera footage processed using computer-generated filters is married to an improvised off-the-floor Tuna Mind Melt soundtrack. Here, image and sound seem uncannily synchronized despite the chance determined union of sonic and visual elements.
Happy viewing.

Colt Jenders Tuna Mind Melt Collab, Part 3
This video short by Colt Jenders explores the phantasmagorical land of baked beans and jellyfish. Lovingly prepared and slowly simmered for hours in a mild but flavorful tomato and molasses sauce, these beans have been meticulously quality tested by only the best mid-twentieth century housewives. Eaten hot or cold, nothing else quite compares to the iron, fiber, and protein (not to mention taste!) packed into a single can of baked beans and jellyfish. Even children (young and old) with particular and discerning tastes will just love these delicious beans!
As a special promotion by your much beloved baked beans company, each can of beans purchased comes with a gender-neutral doll. Youngsters across every fair nation will be ever fascinated by such artistry in plastic. Underclothing worn by the dolls is of only the finest woven cotton. Each doll is adorned in a handmade kilt whose wool is produced by the world’s most deluxe sheep located in a secluded village north of Glasgow.
***Warning: visual or olfactorial consumption of these beans may cause hallucinations of iridescent glass-like invertebrates and incessant noise created by the one and only Tuna Mind Melt. Consume responsibly.
