ABSTRACT
"Bitcasters" 21 year-old co-founder Oli Goldsmith continues to develop the company's true multimedia spirit by crossing paint with computers to produce one of the year's most exciting music videos. By innovating new production techniques to specially treat the video's live-action scenes, Oli has succeeded in combining film footage with animated characters from his paintings in a surrealistic 2.5 dimensional world. Based on Our Lady Peace's concepts for their album, "Spiritual Machines", the video explores organic and mechanical narratives inspired by Ray Kurzweil's writings. Copyright held by creator.
