GROUND CONTROL TO MAJOR TOM

“Tin can” MUSIC VIDEO

 

When the owner of Machete Sisters recording studios, Hani Zahra, decided to cover David Bowie’s “Space Oddity” as precisely as possible for a performance and production exercise and as an homage to the late star, I knew it was time to break out the video synthesizer and make a weird ass video. I concepted, directed, style and shot this in Hani’s Brooklyn studio to pay similar homage to the homemade, music-studio-as-spaceship feel of Bowie’s original video produced & directed by Mick Rock in 1972.
