Meet The First Generation of BMX In Nigeria || Short Film

BMX street is one of the most frequently evolving sports in the world.

Fashions come and go as pro riders flit between the contest scene and their latest video release.

In Nigeria, things are a bit different.

As it is around the globe, riding bikes can be about breaking down walls and allowing an ever-growing group of riders to connect and feed off each other's inspirations and influences.

In this film, Starboy, KK Money and S-King lead us through the streets of Lagos, Nigeria's largest city, to illustrate just what a difference riding bikes has made to their lives and what their hopes are for the history of the sport in their town.

BMX on the streets of Lagos seems to be a blend of both old- and new-school influences and looks set to head off in its own unique direction as the riders and scene evolves.

Layers || Art film by Maxim Zhestkov

Layers is a 4K digital art film directed by Maxim Zhestkov exploring the juxtaposition of the outside and inside. 

Computer-generated dark and brutal geometric monoliths are dissected by invisible 3D objects to reveal the layers of the colourful and emotionally vibrant inner structures.

At the intersections of the shapes we encounter complex structures which could be perceived as 3D representations of objects within a 4D universe.

After the previous art films’ foray into the territory of imaginary gallery spaces (Elements and Volumes), Maxim decided to push further and explore the possibilities of impossible sculptures as the main character for this project.

Layers is the fourth film in the series which Maxim launched in 2017.

Maxim has committed to producing one film each season for the rest of his life along with commercial projects in his studio - Zhestkov.Studio - to express his thoughts, ideas and vision and to explore new boundaries of digital art.

Wu-Tang Clan || NPR Music Tiny Desk Concert

Wu-Tang Clan Did a Tiny Desk Concert to Remind You How Much They Rule.

It's a 20-minute-long medley replete with strings and packed with the sort of quick-fire lyrical dexterity you'd expect.

Unlike most NPR sets, there's no clear delineation between songs or sheepish mid-set reminiscing.

It's just 20 minutes of Raekwon, Cappadonna, Masta Killa, Inspectah Deck, U-God, and Young Dirty Bastard (ODB's son), rolling through a medley of tracks from their past. 

The Green Project back the group up on strings, but Young Dirty Bastard steals the show by jumping onto the desk and briefly losing his mind. 

It's great, and you can watch it below.
