Friday Videos - Sept 22nd, 2017

posted September 22, 2017 #

If you haven't already, go check out the new Coupler album I announced this week. You're gonna love it. I got more brewing before the end of the year as well.
  • Weird Simpsons VHS - an art project to re-animate The Simpsons intro with a bizarre style. It's from 2015 but it's safe to say this is the best thing I'll see in 2017.
  • Isle of Dogs trailer - I was fully prepared not to enjoy the latest animation effort from Wes Anderson but I'm pleasantly surprised by this. Looking forward to it now.
  • Conor McGregor Shooting Stars - this is part of a meme that I don't fully understand and don't want to. I just enjoy it.
  • Monkey Shave - I can't say I condone having a monkey as a pet, nor would I assume that they enjoy a shave but it's hard to believe this guy isn't liking it to some degree!
  • Nic Cage on Wogan - six minutes of real-life Cage being insane. Two minutes in he starts to disrobe. This is, absolutely, an endurance challenge.
  • Invention 2: Pattern Recognition - as posted earlier this week, check out this AI powered, stop-motion video from the new Coupler record, Gifts from the Ebb Tide.
  • Doctor and the Medics - Spirit in the Sky - this over-the-top 80's band has such a fascinating look and amazing videos, it's worth a deep dive. What they don't have is an original take on this song, it's pretty amazingly straightforward for a band that looks so bonkers.
I'll also go ahead and recommend you watch Sand like Liquid and this new Bjork video (I don't care for the song but her visuals are untoppable).
