The Junk King

Vince Hannemann a.k.a. the Junk King has spent much of his life constructing the Cathedral of Junk in Austin, TX. Since 1989 he has been collecting thousands of discarded objects and turning them into a giant outdoor installation. In 2010, the City of Austin requested a building permit and Vince was forced to tear down nearly half of his creation, 60 tons of materials before finally obtaining the approval from an engineer. Despite this traumatic event and with the help of many supporters, Vince was still able to keep the Cathedral alive and continue its legacy. The Junk King is directed by Evan Burns.

 

Black Mold

The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion – »Black Mold« directed by Toon Aerts. This clip is much more than your everyday SciFi werewolf bedtime story, I am even not sure that it is a werewolf. Perhaps a monster? In any case, it puts a little more horror into your evening. Belgian director Toon Aerts shot this mystery music clip in Wallonië in the southern part of Belgium. Yet, this song marks something like a comeback for The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion.

Putty Boy Strut

He did it again. No idea why, but it seems to be an honour to be listed as a director of Flying Lotus. His catalogue of good exceptional music clips is long. This is the brand new video for »Putty Boy Stru«, an animated masterpiece directed by Cyriak. His forthcoming album release »Until the Quiet Comes« features Erykah Badu, Laura Darlington, Niki Randa, Thundercat, Thom Yorke & more. Don’t miss.

Until The Quiet Comes

Flying Lotus – »Until The Quiet Comes« directed by Kahlil Joseph. Steven Ellison, known as Flying Lotus, is back with a new album called »Until the Quiet Comes« which is available in autumn on Warp Records. As always there is a wonderful video, this time made by director Khalil Joseph and of course, as a Flylo fan, I am suprised to hear this song, as you may be – his sound has become a lot more sense.

Brats, Lamento & Wijd

May be related, but not not necessarily associated. Three great animated clips compiled by Spex.

1. Liars – »Brats« directed by ian cheng. Check out this video of a CGI-rendered nightmare. Bugs Bunny wakes up as the horror of a reposing mummy or something like that.

 

2. John Talabot – »Lamento« directed by Joshua Catalano. Paris-based motion designer Joshua Catalano takes us on a wild trip into the unknown in his 3D animation titled »Lamento«.

3. Massacooramaan – »Wijd« directed by Kingdom & Subtrança. Portland-based DJ and producer Dave Quam aka Massacooramaan recently dropped his debut EP »Dead Long Time« and has now unveiled some trippy visuals for »Wijd«, a psychedelic kaleidoscope of vibrant colors and floating swords that drift their way through a rainstorm.

The evolution of PC games

Watch this: »From the earliest text-based adventures to the latest modern shooters, Reverse Enginears has created a stunning musical composition featuring only sounds and music from PC games.«

Waiting For The Bus

Somehow rising tension of a scene made out of nothing. The protagonist from Grand Theft Auto IV, at the mercy of public transportation. I just like it, don’t ask me why.
