SATURDAY SHORT: “SPACIOUS THOUGHTS”

The music video is the one form where directors can be weird and experimental without fear of being shunned by the world at large. Made for the band N.A.S.A.’s album “The Spirit of Apollo,” where the concept was to pair unlikely musicians, “Spacious Thoughts” mixes the smooth rap of Kool Keith with the grumblings of ever-weird Tom Waits. Director Fluorescent Hill animates Keith as a black sphere wearing cowboy boots who breathes out Tom as an angry cloud.

    A very exceptional combination of the perfect sound/music/performance and of course fantastic animation. Though I’m not a big lover of rap, but in this whimsical duet it goes much more than just simply alright. Thanks for presenting!
