Exploring the 1374 layers of Jeremy Cole’s ‘Under The Knife’
Having just screened as part of Channel 4′s Random Acts series here in the UK, Under The Knife by director/editor Jeremy Cole proves that the series really does live up to its label of screening bold and creative shorts.

Analogue Visual Effects & Japanese Kuroko Combine in Raoul Paulet’s Surreal Hugo & The Prismatics Promo ‘Le Mystère’

Herz aus Glas
If you’ve been wondering what to do with all those old CRT monitors you’ve been hanging onto for some reason, you should follow in Franco Mento’s footsteps and turn them all into a pulsing, multi-coloured, syncopated artwork as he does in Herz aus Glas.
