117. Ricardo Rivera - Klip Collective

Wear Many Hats

About this episode

Ricardo Rivera is a Creative Director and founder of Klip Collective, a creative shop born out of his days as a rave VJ and documentary editor.

Ricardo is a visual artist, filmmaker and a true pioneer of video projection mapping, having earned a United States patent for his technological breakthroughs in the medium.

His work has been featured multiple times at the Sundance Film Festival, including the commissioned festival bumper in 2014. Rivera has directed full-length light and sound experiences, including Nightscape at Longwood Gardens and Electric Desert at Desert Botanical Garden.

He has directed music videos and tour visuals for a roster of indie artists such as Kurt Vile, Nothing, Twin Shadow and Simian Mobile Disco.

In the advertising world, brands including Nike and Target have sought his unique ability to use video projection art as a bridge between architecture, technology and storytelling.

I caught up with Ricardo when he put out Night Forms at Grounds for Sculpture that the New York Times wrote up about. Truly a good time.

Juxtapoz spoke with Klip Collective and Making Time about their creative process and their dream projects prepping for Making Time at Fort Mifflin. Juxtapoz should have also wrote up about me and Ricardo meet for the first time at Making Time. Truly an art form.

Yes I had to tell the world the Klip bio real quick because as a friend his work is truly phenomenal and every time I see him and his family it’s also great to catch up and see what they’re up to.

Let’s take a trip back in time and into the future.
