Craig Welch: How wings are attached to the backs of angels

"Now Playing in the YouTube Screening Room: http://youtube.com/ytscreenroom Craig Welch takes viewers inside a surreal, meticulously crafted world to meet a mysterious protagonist and his otherworldly visitor. In this surreal exposition, we meet a man, obsessed with control. His intricate gadgets manipulate yet insulate, as his science dissects and reduces. How exactly are wings attached to the back of angels? In this invented world drained of emotion, where everything goes through the motions, he is brushed by indefinite longings. Whether he can transcend his obsessions and fears is the heart of the matter. A film without words. Directed by : Craig Welch. Produced in 1996."

Salvador Dali & Luis Bunuel: Un Chien Andalou

Surrealist artist Salvador Dali collaborated with Spanish film making master Luis Bunuel to create Un Chien Andalou, a fantastical nightmare of mostly irrational and fiendishly macabre images. Un Chien Andalou is one of the watershed pieces of early avant-garde cinema. The images found in this short film are horrific and frightening by any standard. Self mutilation and transforming body parts are merely the beginning of the non-linear mashing up of powerful and mind bending scenes. The film would also be a tremendous influence on later avant-garde filmmakers like David Lynch.

Portishead: Only You

This is one of the most beautiful music video's I've ever seen. The video was filmed in giant water tanks and the air bubbles were all digitally removed in post production. Another masterpiece from director Chris Cunningham. Hat's off to you sir!
