I&#8217;ve been following him ever since he directed one of my favourite vids of last year; the incredible, bloody, (literally) heart-wrenching vid for Gnarls Barkley&#8217;s <a href="https://shapeandcolour.wordpress.com/2008/07/25/gnarls-barkley-chris-milk-whos-gonna-save-my-soul/"><span style="color:#ff00ff;">&#8220;Who&#8217;s Gonna Save My Soul.&#8221;</span></a></p>
<p>His latest, &#8220;Last Day Dream&#8221;, is short but exquisite. With a pace that feels like breathing and glimpses that feel like blinking, he shows us first-person flashbacks of an entire life in 42 seconds: the time limit for this commission from the <a href="http://www.42x42.com"><span style="color:#00ffff;">42 Second Dream Film Festival</span></a> in Beijing. All that, and he also wrote the piano score. Unreal.</p>
<p>At the very end, I felt tingles go up my arms. Sometimes my body tells me I love something before my brain does&#8230;</p>
