Beck And The Chemical Brothers Release Experimental New Video

01/26/2016
. (Radio.com) The Chemical Brothers' new collaboration with Beck titled "Wide Open" now has the offbeat, innovative video it deserves. Directed by Dom&nic, the clip uses experimental CG technology to up the ante on modern dance.

In the video, dancer Sonoya Mizuno performs a solo interpretation of the song--but her body incrementally disappears into a virtual mesh form. Inside her webbed exterior is a beating heart, elegantly representing the song's lyrical vulnerability.

"Dom&nic's vision was to merge the mechanical and organic, having been inspired by procedural cellular structures; their VFX Team created a full CG model of [Mizuno] comprising of 107 individual anatomic rigs, as well as bespoke tools to allow the seamless transformation which happens during the dance," explains the video's release.
