Music Video "Elle Demeure" by Ana Dess realised by Hélène Ducrocq from Kaam collective
French transmedia artist Ana Dess chose Kaam collective, based in Valence, France, to realise the music video for her song 'Elle demeure'. The song tells the story of a house. It's Hélène Ducrocq (I wrote some articles about her work here and here) who realised this video, and the result is just amazing. It uses an animation technique called Stratastencil which consists on animating paper sheets cuted and put on perspective. The effect is very special and give the movie a great aspect (even if I think it's pretty exhausting to make).
A part of the movie is also realised with the traditionnal stop-motion technique, made by transforming and moving real objects.

Music Video : Caffeine by Brandt Braueur Frick realised by Danae Diaz and Patricia Luna
It's a beautiful hand-drawn style music video that Danae Diaz (spanish graphic designer located in Berlin) and Patricia Luna (russian graphic designer working in Barcelona) realised to illustrate the music 'Caffeine' by Brand Braueur Frick. A kafkaian atmosphere in which robotic workers are endless repeating same gestures, same paths, symbolised by graphic elements from the urban work world like elevators, automatic doors, traffic lights... Even if a strange and stressing atmosphere is conveyed, I find it's perfectly adapted to the music. The end of the film is a bit strange and mysterious, if someone has an interpretation feel free to share it in the comments !

Selbstgesprächen, interactive musical experience
Selbstgesprächen (which could be translated by something like "dialog with myself") is a project born of the collaboration between german artist Karlo Jurina and webdesign studio Britzpetermann. At the listenning of the debut album of Karlo Jurina, studio Britzpetermann decided to create an interactive experience dedicated to bring it a new visual dimension. This work produced a very interesting minimalistic website, allowing the user to listen the album while "vizualisating" it through the interactive music player.
