ARTIST: Peter Gabriel

CREATOR: Albert Normandin

SONG: i/o (Bright-Side Mix) FROM: i/o

Video info:

The song blends earth, nature and life together which are all a part of everything. Creating a visual flow in an abstract way to bring that feeling all together. Using traditional photographic methods, sweeping motion and animation in the real world. The excitement, energy and joy that we are so fortunate to have in this life on earth.

We are all a part of everything.

- Albert Normandin

i/o means input / output. You see it on the back of a lot of electrical equipment and it just triggered some ideas about the stuff we put in and pull out of ourselves, in physical and non-physical ways. That was the starting point of this idea and then trying to talk about the interconnectedness of everything. The older I get, I probably don't get any smarter, but I have learned a few things and it makes a lot of sense to me that we are not these independent islands that we like to think we are, that we are part of a whole. If we can see ourselves as better connected, still messed up individuals, but as part of a whole, then maybe there's something to learn?
