Adam Kesher - Gravy train
Uploaded by disqueprimeur. - See the latest featured music videos.I've just fallen upon that music clip, "Gravy Train" by French music band Adam Kesher, and I wanted to share it on my blog since I find the idea interesting. To me, it's a good example of how two brands can bring value to each other by partnering cleverly.
After a shop middle of an exhibition (Louis Vuitton at the Brooklyn Museum, NYC, during an exhibition dedicated to Takashi Murakami), it's now the turn to a videoclip to be shot middle of an art installation. Instead of recreating a stage for their music video, band Adam Kesher have used an unusual ready-to-be-used stage: an art installation! The clip has been shot middle of the "Spectral Issue" created by the collective Visual System for the Lab-Labanque in Bethunes, France. The installation is an interactive light trail that enable the audience to discover the former bank that has been transformed into a museum, the Lab-Labanque.
Such an installation was quite a logical place to shoot a videoclip for a pop rock electroish music band. And for the museum that may not be really famous, what best than hosting the videoclip shooting of a rising star of the international pop rock scene?

Today I'd like to introduce you with a slight delay the latest technological revolution: the Microsoft "XBox 360 Kinect" (the final name for former Microsoft "Natal Project"! Welcome to the future!
Yes, indeed, no less than a technological revolution: from now on, you won't need any remote controller to play with a video game; only your body will be enough! The XBox 360 Kinect captures your body movements and echoes and replicates into the video games: move your hand and you'll move some objects in the main menu; go closer to your screen and you'll see the object closer; turn your head back and you'll see what's in your back in the game! Words are not enough to describe that incredible experience, check out the videos above.
The Wii video game console had already strongly impacted the world of video games. With Microsoft, not only will the world of video games be impacted but our daily world will! Think a little bit ahead of the sole video games industry. Do you see what I can see? Yours online shopping and being able to make sure that garment you like fits you well before buying it; Yours watching a 3D moving, the main character is running, and you're wondering why he's running like that: what do you wait to turn your head back? Yours enjoying the Joconde in its smallest details as if you were in the Musée du Louvres in Paris (actually, much better than you could do in reality, the Joconde being crowded and hold behind a glass cage); etc etc. Won't it be absolutetly incredible? Stunning, right?
So congrats to the Microsoft XBox 360 Kinect project-team for coming up with such an amazing tool! The only critisicm I'd do (the very French side of me, sorry) is about how you introduced that revolution for the ry first time during the E3 Expo in Los Angeles last June: the press conference was so "clinical"! You were talking about a dream every gamer had had for years and here's the dream comes true! So guys, why couldn't make us dream in your presentation and unveil us what part of our future would be made of?
Oh, and by the way, the XBox 360 Kinect should be on shelves in 2011...

Kinetic, here we are again! yes, but it's so beautiful! And no, I haven't searched on purpose news about brand art and kinetic sculptures around the world! Life is as such: sometimes, you focus on something and then it seems that the whole worlds revolves around it!
This time, we're talking about a gigantic kinetic work of art being designed by art-based design studio UAP and artist Ned Kahn, for the Brisbane Domestic Airport short-term carpark.
A 5000sq.m-8-storied wall made of 250000 panels of aluminium that will move with the wind and give an image of unceasingly moving water. Should be a great urban work of art: a bit of poetry and fantasy within a very urban environment! Plus that work of art will not only be aesthetics and mesmerizing, it will also help cooling off the car park.
Due date late 2011. Don't miss to fly to Brisbane!

"27321", the name of the most expensive cocktail in the world. 27321 for its price, UAE dirham 27321 (around USD 7500) and for the floor (27th) of the SkyBar of the Burj Al Arab hotel (321m high).
Why is that cocktail so expensive? The SkyBar answers the cost of it is the cost of production. Humm, yeah. Ok, the cocktail is made from 60ml Macallan 55 year old single malt natural color whisky, two bar spoons of exclusively produced dried fruit bitters that carry and support the whisky's flavor, and one large sugar cube homemade passion fruit sugar. The resulting cocktail is then served over ice cubes made of water from the Macallan distillery in Scotland, along with an oak stirrer made from a Macallan Cask. The cocktail is presented in a Baccarat 18-carat hand-made gold glass, on which the logo of the Burj Al Arab is stamped, glass that the buyer takes home with a certificate of purchase.
Besides, only 10 times will that cocktail be made. Or has already been made since the first two cocktails were sold on April 16th, 2008. Above the cost of production, this not-one-of-its-kind initiative is a good buzz: cocktail competition is harsh among the world bars and many of them are used to create expensive cocktails by adding a jewel to their cocktails! Latest in date is worth 48000 euros...
So should we cry for those 2 American guys that bought the first 2 27321 cocktails?
