Music Videos

Jakob Trollback is a musical pioneer. In this video he presents a music video where the music is the the creative focus of the video, rather than the filmmaker'sCommercial concept/vision. His video is looks very similar to the visualizer setting available on many music playing software. I was intrigued by this video because I am a fan of Hip Hop music, but I am shamed when I watch the music videos. Often times music videos are used to advertise rather than express a meaning. Hip Hop music videos are an excellent example that "sex sells". Please don't support fake music. Support passion and love. Thanks, peace!

  1. Mickey,
    I love how passionate you are above music! Is that the main reason that you are in arts education?

  3. Well my major is in visual arts education, music might be my minor though. I just love music because I find it so stress relieving.

  4. I like how all the lines, dashes (whatever they are), are in sync with the music. Very cool.
    Also, I enjoy a bit of hip hop myself, but mainly older, and not as popular hip hop, that don't tend to be so obnoxious.
