This short film is made entirely with stop motion animation, with over six thousand still photos shot and then edited together. Created by the talented Lu Sisi, the cameras are literally ‘brought to life’ here, while image composition and lighting is as carefully considered in each video frame as they would be for individual photo shots (WARNING – contains flash photography).

As part of the evolution of the Human Resources™ project, in 2010 we are releasing a series of mixtapes created for us by selected artists, creatives and musicians.
First to be released is this dark, experimental and stellar mix, aurally crafted by Konx-om-pax (a.k.a. Tom Scholefield). He is the talented animator, director and illustrator who used to run Techno and Acid nights at the legendary Club 69 in Paisley, Scotland.

Sonic Acts ‘The Poetics of Space‘ is an annual event entirely dedicated to the exploration of space in performative and audiovisual art, film, music and architecture. It examines the importance of physical space in times of far-reaching technological developments, and the physical and psychological impact of spatial designs.
The exciting programme of events is running in Amsterdam from 25th – 28th February. The four densely filled days and nights will provide an extensive overview of recent works and experiments – spatial audio compositions, audiovisual installations and performances – and includes relevant historical examples and utopian ideals and dreams from the twentieth century.

Check out this great music video by KORB, created for the track ‘I’ll be gone’ by Mario Basanov & Vidis, featuring Jazzu. It’s such a simple yet effective concept with a nice unexpected twist towards the end of the video.

It’s been a bit quiet around the Human Resource Department at the moment, so apologies for lack of updates, but we will be back to full effect soon. In the meantime, in a continuation to our previous Carl Craig post, the Detroit musician has returned via Grandcrew, performing classic Tribe material with trumpet-player Marcus Belgrave, drummer Doug Hammond, and pianist Harold McKinne. Enjoy.
I first came across Kernohan’s photography at her new exhibition at The Saint, Edinburgh (sister bar to the fantastic Bramble) which runs until 3rd of October.
Above is the artwork for the new Mary Anne Hobbs album, Wild Angels, which Kernohan worked on, alongside Dominic Flannigan (LuckyMe). The photography takes on a folky feel and are made “a litte more sinister and unworldly” in post-production. Great work guys, thanks for getting in touch.
