Balloons are rad. That’s obvious, but designer J Tyler Helms has doubled the radness by created this little gem. Both an homage to Albert Lamorisse’s 1956 classic “La Balloon Rouge” and a fan vid for Grizzly Bear’s “Two Weeks”, I became extremely happy when I watched this. And I was happy before. It was happy overload.
In case you’re unfamiliar, J Tyler Helms is the guy that created the beautifully matched fan vid for Radiohead’s “All I Need”, matching that painfully beautiful song with footage from the 1996 French nature documentary “Microcosmos.” With 1.2 million hits for the vid on YouTube, apparently I’m not the only one that digs it.
