“‘I (Stuart Semple) just wanted to make a piece of work that would cheer people up a bit.’ he continued saying, ‘I know at times like this it’s easy to make creativity a low priority but i want to show that on a very human level an artistic idea might be able to do something important even for a fleeting moment.’ the piece was created using helium, soap and vegetable dye. semple release one pink-tinged cloud every 7 seconds, with each lasting only 30 minutes. 2057 completely biodegradable clouds were released in total.”

If a guy came up to me with a guitar and sang this song (well) I’d be blown away. My heart could almost be sold… almost I say… A original and sweet song by Sam Hart. You can check out his other songs on his youtube profile. :)

It’s still in my thoughts for now. Vance had drawn a lovely filler comic, but was too embarressed to post it onto Behold. It will be up soon I promise! <3

BLIP FESTIVAL: REFORMAT THE PLANET trailer from 2 Player Productions on Vimeo.

BLIP FESTIVAL: REFORMAT THE PLANET is a documentary about the pioneers in the Chiptune genre. These musicians use old video game hardware to make original electronic music. It definitely brings a sense of nostalgia if you had any interaction with early video game hardware like the Commodore 64, NES, or Gameboy.

Watch the full documentary at PitchFork.tv.
