The following short directed by Matt Pyke and animated by Maxim Zhestkov was part of 42×42 a number of short works commissioned by 42 Below. The films needed to be 42 seconds long and surreal.

NEAVE – interactive awesomeness
There isn’t much that NEAVE doesn’t have. It is a bounty of interactive goodness from games, to bizarre aggregation of vids, to interactive experimentation. The project is the brainchild of Paul Neave. What I enjoy about experimentation like this is the way it provides curated experiences that can be engaging, perplexing and entertaining all at the same time. Plus some of the elements are embed and spread – space invaders anyone?
FEVER RAY: If I Had A Heart
Love the visual style of this piece and the creepiness.

BAMBI KILLERS – ep12 season 1 of RADAR
The WBP Labs series RADAR is now embeddable. This is a personal fav from last season. We’re currently knee deep in producing Season 2 – stay tuned for more details.
A Walk into the Sea: the Danny Williams Story and the Warhol Factory
I had the great fortune of lending a hand on this film. Esther is a dear friend and this film is an amazing exploration into the life and disappearance of her Uncle Danny. Earlier tonight I caught the film on the Sundance Channel. It is a moving piece of work that’s hauntingly beautiful. Props to t. griffin for the score and Danny’s own films are breath taking.
