Video of the Week

Hubble Serves Up a Holiday Snow Angel
Something a little different here, courtesy of NASA. “This movie presents a visualization of the star-forming region known as S106. This unique three-dimensional view illustrates and emphasizes that many of the objects contained within astronomical images are not at the same distance, but, in fact, spread across light-years of space. The Hubble image is augmented with additional field-of-view from the Subaru Infrared Telescope. The stars and the lobes of glowing gas from the Hubble/Subaru two-dimensional image have been separated and sculpted using both scientific knowledge and artistic license to create the depth in the movie. Of note, the relative distances between stars and the nebula have been greatly compressed.”

New Concert Film From The Chemical Brothers and Exclusive Screenings

Friday, December 16th, 2011

chemical brothers dont think

The British music legends team up with visual collaborator Adam Smith to create a unique perspective on a live show.

On 26th January, The Chemical Brothers will start an exclusive screening of ‘Don’t Think’, their live concert film piece directed by Smith. The screenings will happen at 20 cities around the word, including Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, and Toronto. After the January screenings, a wider release will follow on February 1st.

The film was recorded at Japan’s Fuji Rock festival, back in July 2011, at which the Chems performed one of their infamous live sets. Smith used 20 different camera angles to create a piece from the perspective of the crowd. “After 18 years of working on the Chemical Brothers live show we have finally captured it on film. I wanted to capture what it is like to experience the show from right in the middle of the crowd as well as showing and combining the visuals featured in the show with the footage we captured on this one night, to see how the music and visuals emotionally affect and connect with the audience.

‘Don’t Think’ consists of the entire headline set of The Chemical Brother’s performance in Dolby 7:1 surround sound, probably the first concert to be recorded and mixed for the big screen with such technology. The official trailer looks pretty epic, and you can watch the it here…
