Check out the music video for the song that Willamette Week calls “the best pop single that’s not even out yet”. Download the track above and watch the color and puff-packed time lapse video below.
Britta Johnson (video director for Andrew Bird, among others) brings Lusine’s gorgeous new single “Two Dots” to life, illustrating the songs relationships-as-trigonometry analogy in an intricately animated video. In the clip, a pair of marbles—one blue, one yellow—engage in the timeless dance of seduction on a horizontal plain, mapping the ups and downs of a courtship through pencil-drawn geometric principles. Like Two Dots, Johnsons video lives in the middle ground between technology and humanity, emotional immediacy and obsessive detail.
