“Vielleicht ist es gar schon bekannt”, schreibt voller Sorge mein famoser Tipgeber. Regisseur Magnus Renfors schreibt über den Kurzfilm zu Ane Bruns “Do You Remember”:
“Ane’s music is like a great ocean housed under the roof of a great old theater, where pictures are hung from the threads of the music shooting out, so it really does the job itself. That said, the images require a certain height at a substantively dramatic level, otherwise the music, sometimes so sublime and skin tingling, can rush over the head of the visual aspects. Ane and I have done stuff together since 2003 and already on the last album we talked about doing something bigger, more coherent, and this time it was really the one.”
Dank für den Tip an Max Ackermann!

In a similar fashion to their work in Britain from Above, CGI and animation group 422 South map the daily patterns of those in the Netherlands in VPRO’s production of Netherlands from Above. Planes fly, cars drive, and patterns emerge. The technique never seems to lose its entertainment value. Check out the short making-of video, too, which also includes folks from Stamen describing their work with the interactive portion of the feature.

“Ocean Sky” von Alex Cherney:
At a star party in August 2009 I took my first long exposure photograph of the night sky. I was so thrilled with the results that I dedicated most moonless weekends since then to photographing two things I love the most in nature - the night sky and the Ocean. … This time lapse video is the result of almost 1.5 years of work, 31 hours of taking images during six nights on Southern Ocean Coast in Australia.
