Home & Office Candy Chang Ian & Cooper Direct Joel Compass Debut A picture may be worth a thousand words, but the mystical video for Brixton-born R&B newcomer Joel Compass’ debut track leaves the viewer near speechless. Directed by Ian and Cooper, “Back to Me” is a visual-pushing, vertebrae-chilling film that takes an already haunting song to new heights. The video was voted as Vimeo Staff Pick after its initial release last week. The black and white video incorporates a glitchy movement in the background of otherwise-inanimate frames, creating an uncanny feeling perfectly suited to the chilling r+b track that tells the story of a less-than-stellar father and his son. The innovative video was constructed with still images using the cinemagraph technique, where one motion is isolated and the rest of the frame remains still, a visual that has been seen as standalone GIFs (such as with the popular Cinemagraph App), but never strung together to create a narrative. "The shoot itself felt like part photo shoot and part cinema," continues Ian. Credits Addl.

How Famous Companies Got Their Names Ever wondered about how famous brands got their names from? Here are a couple of explanations. Via A Stunning, Intricate Maze Made From 2,200 Pounds of Salt | Co.Design Motoi Yamamoto has to be the most patient man in the world. A Japanese artist, Yamamoto uses salt to create monumental floor paintings, each so absurdly detailed, it makes A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte look like child's play. He calls them, fittingly, his Labyrinths. Yamamoto's latest labyrinth creeps out from a brick tunnel at the Fondation Espace Ecureuil, a gallery in France. He made it -- as he makes all these installations -- by sprinkling salt on the floor through a plastic bottle used for machine oil, starting at the back of the tunnel, then moving forward to avoid stepping on the designs he's already drawn. Here's an older installation at Sankt Peter parish in Cologne: The story behind Yamamoto's salt sculptures is sweet and sad. Yamamoto takes pains to extend the metaphor beyond the walls of the art gallery. [Images courtesy of Motoi Yamamoto; bottom two photos by Stefan Worring]

Slow Motion Music Video Shot Using One Continuous 18 Second Shot When tasked with making the music video for the song HAVOC by While You Slept, Frokost films decided to get a little creative. In addition to shooting the whole thing in slow motion, they managed to shoot the entire music video using just one 18-second continuous shot. For gear they had a Red Epic and a 75mm master prime lens, as well as a few trampolines, mats, lights, fire, and fog machines. They put it all together in a warehouse courtesy of Aspelin Ramm and took one 18-second shot at 300fps, which translates into approximately three and a half minutes at slow motion. Here’s how it turned out: The BTS at the top is a little less than half the length of the full-length version they link to in the description, but this one has English subtitles. (via Fstoppers)

Disclosure - When A Fire Starts To Burn Sheet Set - All Art 7133 items below Add to cart ↓ More The Coolest Elevator in New York Last week, I was scouting office space in a building in Queens. My guide brought me to this totally unassuming elevator: Really, I have to show you this as I encountered it: WOW. It’s like Willy Wonka built an elevator to the land of Oz! Easily the coolest elevator I’ve ever been on in New York: Here’s a full panorama looking toward the rear of the elevator (that’s a railing beneath the mirror)… …and a reverse pan showing the front: Lining the ceiling are these great monster heads made out of mechanical bits… Each is poking through its own hole: More characters, including a king: Another character: The elevator is a last remnant from when the former Macy’s warehouse building catered to a more artsy clientele. Best of all, there’s a cool fish-eye mirror at one end, which makes it look like you’re leaning out of some parallel dimension: PS – One other installation was left in the lobby – a school bus, apparently paused in the midst of an avant-garde crash:
