Jakob Trollback at TED, a video for Byrne + Eno

Thursday, April 17th, 2008

What would a music video look like if it were purely directed by the music? Not driven by a concept, nor by a desire to build an image, but purely as an expression of a great song? Designer Jakob Trollback shares the results of his experiment in the form. The song is “Moonlight in Glory,” from David Byrne and Brian Eno’s classic album My Life in the Bush of Ghosts, remastered in 2006. Jakob Trollback is a designer and creative thinker and he’s also a DJ. His company is Trollback + Company. From the TED Conference 2008
