“This is my senior project at Savannah College of Art and Design. Where my idea comes from is that every time when I am busy, I feel that I am not fighting with my works, I am fighting with those post-it notes and deadline.” -Directed by Bang-yao Liu.
the album is called “Sleep Through the Static Remixed.” it contains 7 songs from the “Sleep through the Static” album remixed by some musical greats including, Nightmares on Wax, Katalyst, Money Mark, Kid Koala, DJ Tropikal, Worst Friends, and Mario C, as well as 3 videos.
I love this kind of stuff. especially the use of old computer parts.
Radiohead held an online contest to remix “Nude” from In Rainbows. For his final project from graphic design at the Glasgow School of Art, James Houston wired obsolete computer parts to play “Nude”.
He said:
“Based on the lyric (and alternate title) “Big Ideas: Don’t get any” I grouped together a collection of old redundant hardware, and placed them in a situation where they’re trying their best to do something that they’re not exactly designed to do, and not quite getting there.
It doesn’t sound great, as it’s not supposed to.”
He used these special instruments:
Sinclair ZX Spectrum – Guitars (rhythm & lead)
Epson LX-81 Dot Matrix Printer – Drums
HP Scanjet 3c – Bass Guitar
Hard Drive array – Speakers – Vocals & FX
Went to the Chromeo concert a week ago. they were great live. amazing how much music can come out of two guys on a stage. At the concert they were also offering free photoshoot sessions. as you can see we had a lot of fun with that.
