Dammit Wiley Wiggins, now you’re just messing with our heads. This video kinda creeps us the hell out, and yet, and yet, we can’t stop watching. You’ve done Mesmer-ed us pretty good with this one. Of course, the trippy Octopus Project beats help, as well. This is Wiggin’s video for OPro’s “Hallucinists” (and you can check out his equally trippy and seizure-inducing one for “Catalog” here), which is from the quartet’s amazing Hexadecagon project that they debuted at SXSW last year. The Octopus Project is putting the tunes from that out on CD on October 26, though sadly they don’t yet seem to have a local date lined up for the occasion. The album was also mixed by John Congleton, just to add some extra craziness into the action, no doubt. And for a small price, Wiggins will come to your house while you listen to the album and project crazy stuff to make you trip. (Wiggins will not come to your house and project crazy stuff to make you trip). You can, however, watch his video for “Hallucinists” below, which should serve your needs just fine.

This is quite impressive! Think they will be back for SXSW in 2011? Hope so! I just booked my place in Austin from a site called MetroFlats.com. So excited!
