Buke and Gase  make punchy, loud music, yet folky, polyrhythmic but melodic. Spontaneously I'm thinking of a crossover between Dirty Projectors, Akron Family, Tori Amos and other 80's & 90's bands. Literally my new ear drug ^_^

Hello gingerbreads,

as an opening for this edition of les petits biscuits, I wanted to share this food sequence from "Samsara". 
A non-verbal documentary from filmmakers Ron Fricke and Mark Magidson:

"Les bosquets" by JR (official teaser)


The film "Les Bosquets" brings the audience in a place where art and the power of image interweave. Based on the story of Ladj Ly and the performance of the ballet Les Bosquets of New York City Ballet (2014) inspired by the riots in the French suburbs in 2005, JR reveals its experience in the ghetto of Montfermeil where he created his first project, Portrait of a Generation. This film is a continuation of this 10 years project, for which he uses various means of expression and narration : video archives, choreography and testimony. This short film will be presented exclusively in galleries and museum shows.

Fabrice Le Nezet is a french Designer, visual artist and filmmaker based in London. His work explores the intersection between architecture, fashion and toys design through the use of raw material such as concrete and metal. Recognizable in his work is the pure, clean and graphical aesthetic combined with playful qualities.

Kwabs "Perfect Ruin"


OK Go "I Won't Let You Down"


Did we discover Beastie Boys grand children with The Death Set
Here are the Video Clips from "Slap Slap Slap Pound Up Down Snap" 

and from "They come to get us"

Siska "Unconditional rebel"


Last year, 80 extras lined up along a road in France. A car drove by at 50 km/h and filmed them engaging in various activities. The action was over in 5 seconds. The footage was filmed at a high rate of 1000 frames/second. Once it’s put to slow motion, what happened in 5 sec. unfolds into a 3.5-minute “dreamlike mural.” Some digital elements were added later but for the most part this is a single, 5-second shot.

Hello little cupcakes,here is the Christmas batch of fresh cookies.
"Cheek to cheek" by Ella Fitzgerald & Louis Armstrong

"WIND" by Robert Loebel, is an animated short about the daily life of people living in a windy area who seem helplessly exposed to the weather. However, the inhabitants have learned to deal with their difficult living conditions. The wind creates a natural system for living.


 Roy Ayers "Everybody Loves The Sunshine"


I dedicate this song to this talented fellow:
http://thomasassie.blogspot.de/ and here you have a modern cover of this song: https://soundcloud.com/kan-sano/everybody-loves-the-sunshine
Tristesse contemporaine "Daytime, nighttime"

"Killer Toys" is an animated short film reflecting a war between two children. There is an interesting contrast between the childish drawing style and the reality of war.


 "The work of Zina Nicole Lahr" by Stormy Pyeatte


And here, you can read some explanations from the video director:

In August 2013 my friend Zina asked if I could shoot a video for her portfolio. She needed something that would showcase her work but also tell a little bit about her personality and her interests. We had two days to shoot and edit so we shot an interview and smashed something together to meet our deadline. On November 20, 2013 Zina passed away due to a hiking accident in Ouray, CO. After the funeral I revisited the footage and made this short as an attempt to capture her personality and creativity. I never planned to release it online but now I have a chance to share her and her creations with all of you! For all who are part of the Zina Lahr love bomb, this is for you!

Ben Venom http://benvenom.blogspot.de/ hand made embroidery with metal bands T-shirts.
 
Cymatics: Science vs Music - Nigel Stanford. Wicked thing! Thx to Stefan who shared this. 


Interpol "El Pintor" (full album) 


Erotic Market "I want to be some booty" Clever and creepy use of the symmetry effect in this video. The song is kind of cool too, even if it is not so much my kind of stuff usually, but it has an interesting atmosphere. 


Enjoy, have a nice Xmas and take care.

Tom Jamieson "The DIY Weapons Of Maidan" 

After two weeks of photographing the recent Maidan Square protests in Ukraine and feeling frustrated that he wasn’t contributing anything new to the coverage, London-based photographer Tom Jamieson turned his lens on a unique subject: the DIY weapons crafted by Ukrainian protestors. Jamieson tell us; “It was actually in the last two days of the protests that I decided to focus purely on the weapons and completely remove them from the chaotic background of what was going on around Maidan Square.” Setting up a makeshift studio with a trusty black backdrop and the help of his assistant, Jamieson captured the menacing and medieval-looking weapons in the hands of their proud owners.

Shooting in the early morning or twilight hours outside in the square or near protestors’ tents, Jamieson shows us just how personalized these homemade creations are—some adorned with messages for their targets, some with religious symbols or the names of hometowns. When the peaceful protests of late November shifted to more heated ones—the Berkut police opening fire on protesters in January for example—these weapons began to appear more steadily; here they are a visual reminder of people ready to defend.
