Dream A Little Crazy music video commissioned by Aussie
pop band Architecture In Helsinki is a surreal
candy–coloured–scientific–circus, that collaborators Lucy McRae and
Rachel Wingfield call 'The Biological Bakery'. A series of absurd
machines provide the backdrop for this entirely edible DIY bio fab–lab
operated by lead vocalist Dr Bird and his twinned assistants. Using
familiar baking processes that merge the mass production of food with
the representation of the body, a production line of miniaturised band
members are transformed into edible, cloned body parts that are dipped
and rotated on mass in huge vats of bacterial skin. The Biological
Bakery hints at how synthetic biology could develop in the home.
The Biological Bakery is a creative collaboration led by body
architect Lucy McRae and spatial experimenter Rachel Wingfield who
operate on the fringes of magic, science and intuition. Interfacing the
body with the spheres of architecture and society their experimental and
playful approach celebrates the epiphany in the creative and innovation
process.Dream a Little Crazy is a happiness filled tune crafted for a generation of anti-gloom futurists.
Commissioned by Protein for Channel 4 'Random Acts' and Architecture in Helsinki.
