Charlotte Gainsbourg music video, ‘Heaven Can Wait’ featuring Beck, directed by Keith Schofield, making liberal reference to the work of William Hundley, specifically his ‘Entoptic Phenomena’ (previously) and ‘With Cheeseburgers’ series. (see image above, top row images Hundley originals, bottom row screen grabs from the Gainsbourg video.)
Click image for Antville discussion on the “homage.” Hundley was evidently unaware of the usage, and not pleased.
Schofield on his “working process”:
“I basically have this huge folder of all these found photos and when I get a song in, I’ll play the track and I’ll look through these pictures and see if any thing sticks,” he says. “I’ll be reading something randomly and see a funny picture and throw it in the folder. The whole thing with found photos is that they’re funny because there’s no context to them. You look at a funny picture and go, ‘what’s the scene about?’ And you draw your own conclusions.”
