Black Milk
A high-speed trip on the road and on lines of the digital image. An angry dancer and the display screen. Pixels burn themselves into her skin. She strikes back and rips the image into strips. In an ecstatic dance she confirms the hard beat in her body. «Black Milk» and another video bey the two artists, «Candy Queen», originated in relation to songs with the same titles as on the CD «Days Of Dismantled Routines» by Knut & Silvy (make up/recrec ). Parallel to the development of the music videos, Beat Brogle and Max Philipp Schmid created visuals which they use in live improvisation while visually accompanying Knut & Silvy during concert performances.
