Art Videos

(Actually, Danny Cohen says): I wanted to make walking fun. For it to look effortless, adventurous and romantic - but all through a pair of fingers. So the search for the right pair of fingers began. I auditioned more than two hundred pairs. Film and TV stars were asking to play the role but they were acting too much with it. Finally I found the right pair on a man called Justin. The lady fingers are Helen's, she's the H in HLA, the production company who made it all happen. Myself and a fine chap called Dominic made all the sets with paper, scissors and sticky-back plastic. Hope you like the video, and hope it makes you want to walk ... Danny

A video project I worked on in New York Mills, Minnesota and featuring a wide assortment of my kinetic-art techniques.

The Turk R. and the German M. are buddies. R. works as a bartender in a hip Mexican margarita joint, and M. as a cook in an African restaurant which specializes in shark dishes. They each have 2 girlfriends at a time since they believe in the "polygamic nature of men" and that "their body needs the change". Unfortunately their 4 girlfriends -- all of which are modern women - do not share those philosophical views and raise hell once they discover the double timing. - This is Chapter 1 "Good Morning, You Handsome Guy!" - Chapter 2-6 to follow.
