Birdengine
Thoughts of a Falling Glass Man
 
The video to Thoughts of a Falling Glass Man forms part of Spannered’s showcase of work by filmmakers Adam Aiken and Shelley Revill. The track was composed by Dorset-born musician Lawry Joseph Tilbury, aka Birdengine, and is taken from 2004's Birdengine EP on Benbecula Records. The video has received critical acclaim on the BBC's Film Network site, and has been screened several times at London's ICA.

Co-workers at London's Sherbet animation production company, Adam Aiken and Shelley Revill have been collaborating on short film projects for the past two years. They have developed a visually rich style that stretches the boundaries of conventional design and moving image, using drawing, found objects, photography, live action, animation and digital manipulation to create an idiosyncratic, hand-crafted look. They have produced music videos for The Mountain Goats, The Delgados, Paul Blackford and R3mote, and have attracted the attention of film festivals in the UK and abroad. Their work has also received critical acclaim on the BBC’s Film Network site.
 
Adam recently completed a video for UK electro pioneers Transparent Sound, utilising the illustration talents of Eleanor Meredith.
