Behind The Scenes: From Civilization To Power: The Making Of Kanye West's "Power" (Directed By Marc Brambilla) @ Lovethe88.Com.


"The 88 created a behind the scenes look at Kanye Wests “POWER” by Marco Brambilla. This is an exclusive video showing never seen footage of the anticipated video before its official release.

“POWER” shows a continuous camera move from extreme close-up of Mr. West revealing an a neoclassical video tableau showing characters and creatures surrounding him in an abstract environment - all moving in extreme slow motion. Inspired by Michelangelo’s frescos in the Sistine Chapel, the piece depicts a faux historical moment - an empire on the brink of collapse from its own excess, decadence and corruption."

CHRIS LIVE AKA SHAKER SAYS: Ohhhhhhhhhh! Kanye West's Egyptastic visual for "Power" should be another heaping pile of catnip for ALL these newfangled Hip Hop Illuminati conspiracy theorists ... that is, if their Summer 2010 reading list has covered the holy sepulchre of Osiris at Philae, the naming of Alexandria, VA after the ancient center of knowledge, Alexandria, Egypt, or any number other mysterious things of that nature yet ... lol. Smart dumb people amuse me so ... lol.

Anyway, this ingenious Marc Brambilla directed social experiment in continuous motion looks to be soooooooooooo next level and that's just the way that Livestyle likes it! Good shit!
