OFFICIAL VIDEO for “the clock at the back of the cage” (and it’s gorgeous)
(public post – official thing)
hello loves!
IT’S ART THING DAY!!!! …i am beyond thrilled to finally share this with you: the new video for “the clock at the back of the cage” (the same track from the forthcoming “i can spin a rainbow” record” that i let your ears peek at the other day – if you missed the audio download codes, they’re HERE for patrons only).
i have one request: WATCH THE VIDEO IN FULL SCREEN. pleeeeease. it’s a gorgeous sopt-animation with live actors (my friends christy and luke, both pro circus perfomers from melbourne, are in it and helped create the whole thing, it was shot in a warehouse in melbourne RIGHT after i left the country)… i see new details every time i watch. i know we use our phones for everything internet, but if you have access to a computer, or an internet connected television screen (whoa, the future!!), watch it on the LARGEST screen possible. trust me. it’ll be ten times the video. IF YOU LIKE IT – SHARE THE VIDEO FAR AND WIDE!!! TELL PEOPLE THAT YOU, AMAZING PATRON, DOULA’D THIS SHIT INTO EXISTENCE! you are my media.
i also, as usual, wrote up a huge backstory (with behind-the-scenes photos and text about the process from the artists)….so GO SEE, it’s all been handed with love and care to the official “i can spin a rainbow” project page, where you can find All the Things related to the edward&amanda record, we are trying hard to keep it updated in real time.
HERE IT IS!!! GO LOOK:
