  • Arman Bohn – Brain Games

    The video to “Brain Games,” the third track from Arman Bohn‘s Atari 2600-inspired “Bits” album, was created using drawings made on a Nintendo DSi. These elements were combined with traditionally-shot footage in After Effects, resulting in a monochrome 1080-line-high heap of pixels.
