Go with the Flow: Testo

She said "I'll throw myself away,

They're just photos after all"

I can't make you hang around

I can't wash you off my skin.

Outside the frame, is what we're leaving out

You won't remember anyway

I can go with the flow

But don't say it doesn't matter, matter anymore

I can go with the flow

Do you believe it in your head?

It's so safe to play along

Little soldiers in a row

Falling in and out of love

Something sweet to throw away

I want something good to die for

To make it beautiful to live.

I want a new mistake, lose is more than hesitate.

Do you believe it in your head?

I can go

With the flow (ohohoho)

(I can go) Don't say it doesn't matter

(With the flow)

Matter anymore

I can go

With the flow (ohohoho)

(I can go) Do you believe it in your head? (with the flow)

Do you believe it in your head? (ohohoho)

Do you believe it in your head? (ohohoho)

How...

Shynola / Radiohead / Kid A Blips / Multimedia / 2000

In the 1990s and early 2000s Britain enjoyed a cultural resurgence, British music was amongst the best in world and was accompanied by groundbreaking visual works in part due to the relative strength of local infrastructure. Like Central Saint Martins today, in the 1990s other UAL schools were top of their fields as institutions like London College of Printing were producing students to enter into the burgeoning visual fields of art and design. Firms like The Designer's Republic(Warp Records), Farrow Design(Spiritualized, Pet Shop Boys), and Tomato(Underworld) were all intrinsically linked to the music industry and a massive part of their catalogue has gone on to define a generation of British electronic music. An equally notable although slighter lesser known design firm of the era is directing team Shynola. Their film for UNKLE's track Guns Blazing(Drums of Death, Pt.1)(1998) was a partial collaboration with graffiti artist Futura 2000 and Ben Drury(more on that film later) and propelled their career. About two years later Shynola directed a series of shorts,referred to as Blips for Radiohead's seminal, critically acclaimed album Kid A(2000). The blips served as promotional material and made the rounds through various art,television, digital and physical publication circuits. Each Blip featured short bits of music from the album accompanying a mix of film, motion graphics and animation. The compilation excerpt shown here was featured in Gasbook 10;Movement. An .ISO copy can be found here and the entire collection has been backed up on Youtube. You can read more about Shynola's body of work here.

“Everything” excerpts from SHYNOLA showreel c.2013 

A reddit user named emildorbell originally found these clips on Shynola’s site. It seems the clips were available for several years before they were discovered by the NIN fandom.

Hopefully, we’ll get to see the finished product in the near future. The concept looks fucking amazing!

Shynola / UNKLE / Guns Blazing (Drums of Death,Part 1) Music Video / Multimedia / 1998

UNKLE was Jame Lavelle's musical project founded in 1992 in conjunction with his legendary British record label Mo' Wax. While the label was only active for about a decade it left a lasting impact on British music especially Hip Hop, Trip Hop, and turntablism. While the the label was still active it collaborated with and helped bring graffiti artist Futura 2000 to prominence. Futura alongside Robert Del Naja of Massive Attack, collaborations with Nigo of Bape,Mark Gonzales,Mike Mills and Money Mark under the creative direction of Ben Drury helped grow the reputation of the label as being at the forefront of alternative hip hop culture in the UK. A massive part of this because of the hype of Lavelle's UNKLE whose debut full length album in 1998 Psyence Fiction was widely anticipated and hyped by music journalists, as it was viewed as a follow up the 1996's Endtroducing... by DJ Shadow, who had since joined Lavelle as a full time member of UNKLE. While the album was ultimately released to mixed reviews(Pitchfork gave it a 9.8/10 while Robert Christgau gave it a one-star honourable mention). it has gone on to be retroactively appreciated as a cult classic. Part of the promotion surrounding the album was the music video seen in this post by British directing team Shynola. It mixes various mediums although mostly sticks to animation and can be seen as a distilled pull of Mo'Wax's visual output up until that point. It has characters designed by Futura 2000 featured prominently throughout the video alongside heavily edited live footage of a model in what appears to very various BAPE camo jackets(Mo' Wax had previously released a double album complication in 1997 including a side compiled by BAPE founder Nigo). Another notable aspect of the video is a section seen around the 2 minute mark that features an animated sequence of the UNKLE wordmark reminiscent of The Designer's Republic mixed with Wildstyle graffiti. A twitter thread by artist ANTIREAL from 2020 points out a contemporary analog of this visual style in his own work and his primary influence DMAS3.
