Vimeo Group: Experimental Art

So I came across this group on Vimeo, a great video hosting website, and this entire group is run by video artists surrounding the experimental genre: http://vimeo.com/groups/experimentalvideoart CHECK IT OUT!

Amongst my favorites are "bougainvillea" by Hidemi Takagi. It it 1 min long and it is one of the most visually stimulating videos I've seen in awhile. The colors used set the tone of the piece in an innovative way and the complexity of the piece lies in the simplicity of the visuals. Watch it here.


Another one of my favorites is "Spoken & Melted #1" by Aymeric Ayral. Its only 56 min but it is a spooky and pretty psychedelic piece. I'm still trying to decode the video but it's an experience trying to match the visuals to the audio. I'm unsure if this is a quote or not but it's a pretty cool video. Watch it here.
