Delanila 'The Philosopher' by Simon Villaret & Danielle Eva Schwob
Rob Ulitski - 19th Mar 2020
Delanila laments the obsessions of the digital age, in the kinetic video for The Philosopher.
Co-directed by VFX artist Simon Villaret and Danielle Eva Schwob - aka Delanila herself - this is a blistering explosion of Internet-induced jealousy, written for anyone who's ever been envious of someone else's perfect social media life.  Â
Packed with cracked visual effects evocative of the perils of the digital age and its all-consuming nature, the clip races and rages towards a demonic ending, hurtling through space and time like a bullet.Â
At its surface a compelling feast of visual fireworks, while at its heart an exploration of the feelings of frustration in the digital age - a sentiment that runs through Overloaded, the upcoming album on which it is featured.Â
