  • A springtime journey into macro space

    When spring had arrived in Gunther Machu's Vienna, he thought about showing the beauty of nature, landscapes, ... But then he realized that on a macro scale, it's incredible what is going on which you normally never realize! Read More
  • Sovnger - Blake, What I like

    Forgettable, loud and obnoxious techno noise but with a cool and crazy video shot in the subway system of Paris, France. Featuring a fast moving and insanely fun relay race, the camera has such an incredibly fast framerate that the fluorescent lights can be seen to be flickering, which would otherwise be imperceptible to the naked eye because of their incredibly high frequency. Ridiculously Awesom... Read More
  • Urban Abstract

    Urban Abstract was born in Tokyo during 2009. It consists of 40 X five second clips or it can be viewed as a one 200 second journey across urban space. The journey, in one, two and three dimensions, is a bit like abstract surfing in which the original destination is only reached after a number of seemingly random yet linked detours occur.

radiohead-pyramid-song-1 Malevolent, moving, epic sounds of the Apocalypse: Radiohead's Pyramid Song will only further people's expectations that their new album would not be a return from the beautiful weirdness of 2000's Kid A. This dark, ambient, dance-influenced rock on Pyramid Song may be the most bizarre material Radiohead has released yet.

radiohead-pyramid-song-2Like so many Radiohead songs, a horrible tragedy has occurred and Yorke is left sifting through the wreckage. "I want to see your smile again," he sings, "like diamonds in the dust." Yorke seeks to cling to love among the chaos but cannot - the forces swirling around him are too omnipresent. "Cease this endless chattering, like everything is fine," sings Yorke, "But sorry is not good enough, sit in back with us, we're on drugs, drugs." The foe here is the deadening consciousness of the age of Prozac and ecstasy. While on Amnesiac Yorke dealt with the demons of lost memories, and on Pyramid Song he tackles the demons of a culture suffocating itself with drugs and boredom. Video by Philip Bloom and shot using Sony EX1 and Letus Extreme in 60fps 720p.
