The Sound of Clothes

So its been awhile since I posted anything, OK it's been 4 months.

The Sound of Clothes: Anechoic is a simple and beautiful concept. The video clips speak for themselves:


" Following our groundbreaking live hemi-anechoic recording session carried out at the National Physical Laboratory in early June, we are pleased to announce the launch of a series of film shorts. Created using the footage and detailed sound recordings captured on the day, the abstract shorts have been masterfully edited by our video editor Harry Hanrahan and will now join the graphic, audio interactives created by Ross Phillips as our 'sound-based collections story'. For the first time, you can now watch and listen to Zora Star as she creates a unique, self-directed performance for each of our carefully selected 'noisy' garments from the A/W '06-7 collections -by designers including Hermès, Stella McCartney, Prada, Christian Dior, Luella, Miu Miu, Maison Martin Margiela, Undercover, Richard Nicoll (pictured), Alexander McQueen and Giles- inside the unconventional, futuristic studio environment. Don't forget turn those speakers up!!"
