Go Do by Jonsi

PHONOGRAPHY: Writing In Sound

As a small change of pace from the rest of the podcast, here's a short music video I put together made entirely out of letters.

The video was created for a two-week run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival as part of a live show I was doing alongside comedian and performance artist Ryan Good. Initially the video was meant to serve as a background element to a movement piece, but we ended up liking the video so much that we all but abandoned all on-stage movement during the projection.

The song in the video is Jonsi's "Go Do." Some of you may recognize Jonsi as the lead singer of the Icelandic band Sigur Ros. If you like the song (somehow after well over 100 listens, I'm still not tired of it) you can buy it here. Or it's worth checking out Jonsi's website directly, where you can watch the official "Go Do" video, or live footage from his "Go" Tour which includes animated projections that are way more impressive than anything I can do.
