The BQE - A Film by Sufjan Stevens

January 7, 2010



Intrigued? I, myself, cannot stop watching this clip. Those hula hoops!

Singer-songwriter Sufjan Stevens has created an independent film that pays visual and aural homage to the architecture of NYC and the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway -- shot on 16mm film and ulitizing time-lapse photography, in-camera editing, slow motion and post-production mirror effects, and set to original music.

Find out more about The BQE on The Front Row -- tune in to KUHF tomorrow (Friday, 1/8) at Noon! -- as Bob Stevenson chats with Michael Kaufmann of Asthmatic Kitty, Sufjan Stevens' record label.

The BQE will be screened in Houston tomorrow night (Friday, 1/8, 7pm, Musuem of Fine Arts Houston), courtesy of the Aurora Picture Show.
