8mm One was a success

23, Jan 2010

This past Thursday we held our first evening of a new Laughing Tree sponsored event, ‘8mm: Owl Bus Vintage Cinema,’ and it was lots of fun. (for more event info and a map, click on that link)
I’ve been into emulating vintage film looks with my digital photography work for a while now, trying to capture [...]

So my brother was just mentioning a hugely creative artist that we needed to check out today. If you aren’t acquainted yet, I’d like to introduce you as well. Meet Sia. She’s a wacky Australian pop singer with great songs and some of the most creative music videos I’ve ever seen.
This first video, Breathe Me [...]

Earlier this year, I came across this video created by Blu somewhere or other, and was completely blown away. I’d never seen anything quite like it, and it boggled my mind to think of how much time, energy and imagination must have been involved in the production of a wall-painted animation such as this:

MUTO from [...]

We’re always interested in better understanding the creative process and in ways to move beyond the inevitable roadblocks that come one’s way when trying to make something beautiful and good. It’s not an easy road at times (I had a flat tire for several years, myself), so that’s why words of encouragement from those who’ve [...]

Daedelus LA Nocturne

29, Sep 2009

I came across this Daedelus video a while back and just loved both the song, and the video’s fantastically creative blend of psychedelia, retro digital fetishism, b-movie creepiness and 80’s cheese.
Hope you enjoy it as much as I do:

So there it is. Hope you like it.

I’ve always been curious about my friends’ various tastes in music.
With some friends, I find that we have been rocking out to the same tunes even though we haven’t been in touch for months and years- true musically kindred souls. With other friends, songs that light up all my neurons and send me into ecstasy [...]

We had lunch today with Sam Davidson of Cool People Care (yeah, I know we’ve mentioned him a lot lately… he’s cool.). He helped us wrestle with the questions, “What exactly is Laughing Tree, anyway? What are we trying to do?” I thought you might have the same question, so let me share some things [...]

We are releasing our first single from the soon-to-be-released, Laughing Tree Lullabies, Vol. 1, today as a music video. And, here it is! Enjoy.
Laughing Tree Lullabies, Vol. 1 will be released globally on May 31st.

On Photography, 2007

You can thank Daniel Collins for this one.
Dan, who was my best man, has for years also been my chief creative agitator and gadfly, often throwing down interesting ideas and challenges meant to spur me into making. Something, anything…for Pete’s sake. And, most often, I am only stirred enough to raise and intrigued eyebrow, wave [...]

We just came across our unfinished Christmas card from last year, and decided to finish editing and post it, even though it’s 10 months late. Maybe it will get you into the Christmas spirit a little early! Besides, it’s a nice little snapshot of wintertime in Hongdae.
