The XX | A Sculpture of an Album | Vinyl Factory, London

The sculpture is the brainchild of Partizan director Saam Farahmand, who is keen to push the boundaries of what music 

videos can offer. “Music videos are a 2D visual interpretation of a song,” he explains. “We are interested in creating spaces 

that exist as a 3D physical interpretation of a song or an album, and that is what we have created for the album xx.

”The piece consists of three large audio-visual units that are displayed in the space, appearing somewhat like giant iPods. 

Each contains a film of one of the three members of The XX, shot by Farahmand, as they play through their 

eponymously-titled debut album. Alongside displaying the beautiful films, the units also emit a lightshow that 

reacts to the music. The overall affect is simple yet compelling.

“It shares sensibilities with art installations, but it should not be considered in this context,” continues Farahmand. 

“It is in essence a physical music video, a looping shrine to the album that you cannot compress, send or turn off. 

We have to understand that these pop-up ‘rooms’ and ‘spaces’ should and will become as commonplace as music 

videos, bridging the gap until we have the technology to ‘stream’ a 3D experience through our home computer as if 

it was a YouTube clip. The xx are the perfect ambassadors for the medium. Their music is mesmerising, 

and deeply physically affecting.”

The installation will be on show at The Vinyl Factory (accessed via Phonica record store on 51 Poland Street, W1) 

until Tuesday, January 12. In addition, The Vinyl Factory has created a deluxe vinyl version of The xx’s album to 

celebrate the event, which is on sale at Phonica. The package will include three prints of stills taken from Farahmand’s 

footage, one of each band member, signed by each.

Athens Tourism | video advertising | with "Krazybubbler Emil" directed by Living Projects and SamuelChristopher

Communications agency Living Projects has created a two-minute film to promote the Greek captial city Athens.

Commissioned by Breathtaking Athens - a new promotional initiative for the city run by the Athens Tourism and Economic Development Company - the film sidesteps the tired tourism clichés of showing young beautiful families blithely frolicking (in slo-mo) around sun-drenched landmarks or sandy beaches. Instead it takes a decidedly more poetic approach, showing as it does an impressively large bubble floating gently in dozens of tranquil looking locations in and around the city:

Real bubbles were created for the six day shoot by "bubble magician" Krazybubbler Emil l and the film was directed by Living Projects and SamuelChristopher.

The film will live online with the hope that it functions virally as a campaign that attracts visitors to the city.

This is the second attempt at reinventing tourism ads we've seen recently, following Yvan Attal's Kisses From Paris film for the Paris tourist board

Which is all a welcome change from this

CIN RE-MAKE'09 | urban art | Lisboa/Porto - transportes | 26OUT > 26NOV

A CIN volta a transformar os espaços públicos através da cor. Fazendo um RE-MAKE na cidade. Os transportes movem-se pela energia criativa que nos faz viajar por novas formas de arte.

Em 2009 o CIN RE-MAKE mistura a cor e a música criando um novo ritmo para o olhar. Formas e sons fundem-se num ambiente que se torna único e pronto a ser descoberto. E então as formas e os sons movem-se. Muito para além do fim da linha. Até ao limite da imaginação.

Com o objectivo de promover novos talentos, este ano o desafio foi lançado aos alunos de várias faculdades de arquitectura e design do Porto e de Lisboa:

CIN RE-MAKE é a oportunidade para que os alunos deixem a sua marca na paisagem urbana. Para pintarem a música ou para sonorizarem a cor. Para terem a sua primeira exposição. Colectiva e em movimento.

A CIN une-se ao Metro de Lisboa, Carris, Metro do Porto e STCP numa parceria da qual resulta uma intervenção criativa única. Que revoluciona o espaço da cidade.

Evento: 29 de Outubro na Lx Factory, às 20h
