This video was made by Steffen Bygebjerg in 2009 for the song "End Scene". The track is taken from Troels Abrahamsen's album WHT also from 2009.
The animation work was made in Adobe After Effects. Each frame was then printed and the print was subsequently scanned back into the computer. The scanned frames were then assembled back into the original animation, now with a new rugged look, created by the visit in the physical analogue world. No effects added after scanning. supertroels.dkFound on twitter via @matt_bullock (http://twitter.com/bentopliss/status/9671960700 )
Its currently over 8 hours in length and nearly 100 tracks. Its perfect to get you through a working day or to stick on when a few friends come over.
You can give it a listen here: [nf]*
It’s a pretty mixed up selection of indie, electro, house and with a few choice rap and 80’s tunes thrown in for good measure. So if you aren’t feeling a few tunes just skip on a bit and hopefully it will keep you rocking all day!
Enjoy,
Ben. X
ps. I’d love to know what you think, or if has anyone suggestions of anything which could be added.
pps. I've also run out of Spotify invites, sorry. Try tapping up a friend ;-)

I’ve had my new iPhone a while now and realised I haven’t used the much talk about (prior to release) video function, so I did a little test at the Orbital gig at Manchester Academy last Saturday (19/09/2009). (I never generally think to take videos on my iPhone, but I forgotten to clear the memory card before going out and ran out of space on my card.)
I took two videos on my iPhone and two on my camera ( Canon Ixus 700, http://www.cameras.co.uk/details/canon-ixus-700.cfm) the results are as below:
Orbital - Impact (The Earth is Burning) - Canon Ixus 700
Orbital - Belfast - Canon Ixus 700
Orbital – Satan – iPhone 3GS (held vertically)
Orbital – Doctor? – iPhone 3GS (held horizontally) - This has a bit of a slow start.
I was largely impressed with the iPhones video capabilities, and I like how it automatically knows which way round the phone is being held. Although the sound sensitivity levels are pretty high on the phone which causes the sound to drop out completely which is no good!
Ps. What an amazing gig!
