Graffinima
From Buenos Aries and Baden and the obviously bent mind of Blu comes this beautiful animation called “Muto“. But don’t suppose this is just any animation, this is a motion piece done on public walls over what must have been a period of weeks or years. The soundtrack, created by Andrea Martignoni [^1], is appropriately strange and stilted. The lack of standing camera work on the animation gives it a very unsettling life, like watching time-lapse footage of slow-moving living artwork. This is one of the most creative ideas I’ve seen on the internet in months.
[^1:] I’m not clear yet at to whether this obscure mp3 link is the same Andrea Martignoni, but the sound is similar. I’m looking into it.
