Patrice - "Aint Got No"

Amazing visuals in this video. Features the work of photographer JR, whose iconic large-scale images of people's faces have been put up in various places around the world. Plus naked people dancing around fires. What more can you ask for?

BT - 1.618

Absolutely gorgeous music and video here from BT. Beautiful composition on the video, and his whole oeuvre is pretty impressive, a wide range of electronic music styles. This song is from his album "A Binary Life", you can read a little more about it here.

Pfadfinderei & Modeselektor - "Construction Desert"

Via Boomkat:
Absolutely immense DVD package from acclaimed Berlin design house Pfadfinderei, the people responsible for Bpitch Control’s graphic design and, in particular, working closely with the unstoppable Modeselektor. ‘Labland’ features over an hour of completely exclusive music from Modeselektor - a visual music album pioneering a tight combination of music, film & graphic design in mindboggling ways. The emphasis here, of course, is on tight edits – both in terms of visual and audio editing, squashed rhythms, bass, shapes & colours, inventing a new kind of synchronicity. Pfadfinderei distort, twist and warp space in response to Modeselektor’s mashed-up samples and low-end heavy backdrops, an absolutely deadly mix. Easily the best DVD we’ve seen of its kind – for all intents and purposes a brand new Modeselektor album given an extra dimension or two, all recorded in beautifully crisp 5.1 Dolby Digital Surround Sound. A massive recommendation!!!!

Cocorosie and Ramona Falls music videos

A couple of really interesting, bizarre, highly creative music videos. I don't usually listen to music like this but the videos are dope.

Rinpa Eshidan - "Cube"

Fascinating, really cool stuff here. Latest video from Rinpa Eshidan, a Japanese artist collective. The video pretty much speaks for itself, but suffice to say their philosophy is powerful and inspiring. It highlights the temporary nature of art and to a smaller degree existence, in that nothing they create is permanent. Therefore their work retains an extremely organic characteristic, as they are constantly re-inventing and tweaking their imagery. Vaguely reminds me of the Tibetan monk practice of carefully assembling a meticulously constructed mandala made of sand particles, only to sweep it all away upon completion.

This "Cube" video was my favorite, but they have a bunch more on their YouTube channel, check em out. It looks like they are selling a compilation DVD, I bet it's pretty sweet if you wanna support them...
