Röyksopp’s This Must Be It video
For the video for their latest single, This Must Be It, Norwegian uber-producers Röyksopp ditched the futuristic stylings and went back to their … ah … roots. Or at least, the roots of a motley collection of tribal dancers. Interesting.
Brilliant stop-motion set to Royksopp’s Eple
This awesome animation by Bang-yao Liu was for his senior project at Savannah College of Art and Design and is framed around the idea that: ‘every time when I am busy, I feel that I am not fighting with my works, I am fighting with those post-it notes and deadline’.
Short film for the new Royksopp album, Senior
This short film was borne from six of the tracks on the new Royksopp album Senior and directed by Noel Paul and Stefan Moore of ThatGo. Shot on location in Detroit, Röyksopp’s Svein Berge and Tobjørn Brundtland said it left them in a ‘bewildered state, that confusing feeling one gets when exposed to something uneasy yet pleasing, after watching the final product’.

Illustrator and artist John Malloy has been working on a graphic novel called Channel One and, without wanting to sound too much like Paris Hilton, it’s looking pretty damn hot. Update!

They may be incredibly eccentric, but these ten inch platforms are physical proof that it is actually possible to create somewhat aesthetically pleasing heels out of elephant faeces. UK-based artist INSA designed the shoes as part of a recent art exhibit at Tate Britain which features the individual work of various artists responding to Chris Ofili’s controversial The Holy Mary elephant dung painting made fifteen years ago.
