I've already written something about The Tallest Man on Earth - a great guy from Sweden. I really enjoy his music, and the more i listen to it, the more i also enjoy the lyrics.
Then all of sudden he comes to Ravenna...hell, how could i miss that! Tallest Man on the beach, awesome!
Well, and about two weeks ago the guys from his fansite put his not-released-before song for fans to make a video. It was just shortly after i talked with Zuzi about the shooting of movie in 60 seconds - contest by Jameson, and our encounter with Robert Carrithers, who can talk about filming in a way that it sounds so easy (yea, it's mostly like this with proffesionals) so i felt that it certainly is possible to do that. I just felt i don't have enough time, since i was preparing both a poster and a presentation for ECerS the conference in Stockholm, and thus forwarded the message to the muse with a great eye, Chiara. Well, and when she said we'll do it together, i eventually fell for that. I guess i'd always do :) And so i shot the italian countryside from a train window using my macbook cam, shot with my phone when walking in the morning rain, stood with a tripod taking few hundreds of pictures in the streets of Ravenna and asked Francesco to come over and play guitar when listening to the song, and i shot him too. With a camera. And then i just threw all these pieces on poor Chiara, jumped on a saturday morning train and headed for Milan, Zurich, Basel, and further north up to Stockholm, while she took her vids in the desert heat, looking from all the moving things in Dubai, looking at the people, at the sky... and she put it all together and gave it the finest ending ever, and voilà!
Thinkin it all over, i'd say that The Tallest Man rocks my Earth.
