“Never again will you be capable of ordinary human feeling. Everything will be dead inside you. Never again will you be capable of love, or friendship, or joy of living, or laughter, or curiosity, or courage, or integrity. You will be hollow. We shall squeeze you empty and then we shall fill you with ourselves.” – Big Brother, 1984
“What you do, where you go, where you live, who you know…” – Ebony Bones, “We Know All About You”
One of my goals for ’09 is to collaborate with friends on creative video projects.
Last week my friend Bryan aka Kaos Blac asked me to shoot some footage of him dancing in random places around the city for Ebony Bones‘ collaborative video for “The Musik”. It was snowing and gross outside but I decided to risk it.
Besides freaking out tourists, our adventures took us to Union Square during a mini snow storm, where we encountered a group of Improv Everywhere cohorts who were wrapping up the 8th annual No Pants Day.
I asked the group if they would dance with Bryan in their underwear and they agreed! This little vid was shot right before the epic footage that can only be seen in “The Musik” when it comes out.
Check out more pics from Kaos Blac’s Ebony Bones shoot on my flickr and stay tuned for a mini behind-the-scenes video diary of our adventures.
Besides shooting Voltaire and other interviews at Dances of Vice II, I spent part of this past Sunday at the last McCarren Park Pool party. This was my first summer to experience the pool party concert series, so I am glad I was able to go to at least two of the shows.
I found this clip on Flickr that was shot from the audience during British artist Ebony Bones‘ performance:
While at the pool party, I was able to get a brief interview with Ebony Bones prior to and after her set. Her music is so sick, you can’t help but move your body. I am looking forward to her album dropping soon!
Props to Bryan (Kaos Blac) for telling me about her. He always seems to know about hot artists from all corners of the globe.
