“Kutiman Killed the Video Star”
Amazing recombination of disparate YouTube music videos into single, cohesive songs.
Kutiman Killed the Video Star – Tech Crunch
If you haven’t heard of Kutiman yet you’re about a week late on the latest music sensation to be incubated on the Web. Ophir Kutiel, aka Kutiman, is an Israeli musician and producer that released a project titled Thru You on the Web seven days ago. It has since garnered over a million views and generated a buzz both on the blogosphere and on Twitter.
The project consists of seven music tracks/videos that are made exclusively from video material found on YouTube. Kutiman spent 3 months in his bedroom splicing and dicing over one hundred videos for samples of singers and instruments—from guitars, pianos, drums and harps, to synthesizers, a bouzouki and even a cash register.
Excellent example of self-empowerment, and the potential for exponential dissemination if you’re really good, offered via social networks. The foundation of monolithic media is further undermined.
