People The Kangaroo’s Travelling Hand GoPro Music Vid

People The Kangaroo turn a hand’s 3 yr world trip into a music video

Filmed on a GoPro over three years by the musical group People The Kangaroo for their single ‘You Would Not Believe Me’, a globe-trotting hand explores oceans, forests, deserts, and unsuspecting tourists’ faces in Times Square. Love it – very clever idea 🙂

Rus Khasanov’s ‘Sweet Dreams’

Rus Khasanov's mesmerising video is the perfect visual for a Monday

We love Russian designer Rus Khasanov‘s latest project ‘Sweet Dreams’ which is footage of a slow moving combination of ink, glitter, oil, and soap creating dreamlike patterns of brilliant colour. This Monday mood is further enhanced by the addition of a soothing track by Dmitry Evgrafov – perfect thing to kick off the week, enjoy! 🙂

Buvette’s New Music Vid ‘Staring at the Lines’

Directed by Félicien Colmet-Daâge and Ludovic Versace, ‘Staring at the Lines’, the latest music video from Buvette, is a little visual gem leading us into a surreal and mesmerising world, a futuristic dystopia populated with clones. With its colourful compositions and particular aesthetic, this animated vid has some nice references to the famous manga ‘Akira‘. Love it! 🙂

The Illustrations of Alice Wellinger

We love the creations of Austrian artist Alice Wellinger whose soft and poetic visual universe illustrates some very serious and difficult subjects such as youth suicide, alcoholism, and depression. Sensational work 🙂

Photographer Hal – Flesh Love

Photographer Hal's creations pack loved-up couples into vacuum sealed bags

With his Flesh Love Returns and Zatsuran series, artist Haruhiko Kawaguchi, aka Photographer Hal, continues to pack couples in vacuum sealed bags, transforming them into pre-packaged, manufactured products, questioning the place and the existence of true love in our society. Slightly WTF but very original creations 🙂

Kanye West – ‘Famous’

Kanye West's new video is an interesting commentary on fame & celebrity

Kanye West has unveiled the slightly bizarre yet interesting new video for his track ‘Famous’ featuring an array of naked celebrities in bed together including wife Kim Kardashian naked and asleep, along with Taylor Swift and Kim’s sex tape buddy ex, Ray J. A slow zoom out reveals their other bedmates to be Amber Rose, Caitlyn Jenner, Bill Cosby, George W. Bush, Donald Trump, Anna Wintour, Rihanna, and Chris Brown, all snuggled up beside them in an enormous bed. Controversial yet an interesting visual commentary on the intertwined, exposed nature of fame and the cult of celebrity. Check it out 🙂

Brian Finke – Desktop Dining

Brian Finke captures the depressing reality of lunch at work

Created for The New York Times entitled ‘Desktop Dining’, photographer Brian Finke documented the depressing reality of lunches at the office, capturing employees eating in front of their computer, during a meeting or in the lunch area – simple images where the cold and corporate universe of the workplace contrasts with dodgy sandwiches and dripping pizza.

Barnaby Roper – Scratch-N-Sniff

Barnaby Roper's work is bold, unorthodox, and experimental

A highly sensual, contemporary, and unbridled short film directed by photographer and director Barnaby Roper, ‘Scratch-N-Sniff’ oscillates between obvious erotic symbols, innuendo and psychedelic sequences. Superb photographic and film production values at work here. Love it! 🙂
