I love Animal Collective too.

Inspiring and energetic. Very fitting to with Animal Collective’s experimental folksy music. Aesthetically, I like it better than the original on how craving it is with raw energy. The original music video directed by Andrew Kuo was nice too, pixelated art fascinates me as well. It didn’t feel as uniform (splashes on top of geometric shapes, just my opinion), but the unbridled experimentation was really enjoyable. Great work, Charles.

Nicely done! I liked the original video for this song, but I think this matches the tone of the music more…great experiment, too! I hope Animal Collective gets to see it soon.

I’m of the opinion that much of abstract art is cheap, because short of seeing all the research and study the artist has done, it could all be happy mistakes. If I were to look at just one frame of this vid, I’d probably come to the same conclusion. Make it all move, however, and it becomes brilliant. Great job on the video. It looks wonderful.

That was far better than the song’s original video. Fantastic.
