Blame, Ghosts And Kaosgumi - GMV At Its Best

Youtube can be a treasure mine sometimes, especially if you are looking for contemporary experimental art. I have just checked out the channel of a user called "kaosgumi", and I thought I'd link one of his works here. It uses the manga art of Tsutomu Nihei, more specifically his popular cyberpunk, "Blame!". This is a GMV - Graphic Music Video and those who are familiar with the notion of AMV (Anime MV) may already know what this means: it takes the artwork of the original which is then organized to the taste of the GMV creator to tell a story or simply to convey a feeling to the rhythm of a chosen piece of music. This is a very fine example of GMV, it keeps the atmosphere of the manga, uses simple but effective solutions of animation, and fitting choice of music. The latter is Ghosts IV [32] from the alternative rock band Nine Inch Nails. I have chosen this video to post here, but there are quite a few others on youtube. Check out if you can!
