10 Feb 2010 old smut and folk songs

What happens when you combine a graphic designer slash musician, a self-deprecating film buff, a modern dancer and a mid-19th century French poet?

Why, a trippy avant-garde music video of course! old smut and folk songs is a project my friends Stephen and Nathan put together seasons ago using found footage, visual effects, a video of me improvising in the forest, and a song Nathan wrote using a sample of Stephen reciting Baudelaire as his old answering machine message. I had never seen the final product until today when Stephen surprised me with a link in my inbox.

It’s 3 and a half minutes, it’s kind of sad, and it’s pretty in a way that really makes me wish I still got stoned. Enjoy!
