Lenkadu performances are immersive musical and visual worlds. Her music combines influences of electronic music, avant-garde sound art and various genres of live music, such as progressive metal and noise rock. She creates her beats, samples her field recordings, sings, and plays multiple instruments: kalimba, guitar, bass guitar and anything else that makes intriguing sounds.

When Lenka asked me to cut a video for this track, her only rule was that I wasn’t to spend more than a day on the idea.

That was fine by me; my video work is often long and involved, shadowing whatever project I’m involved in – so having something short and sweet to work on was a lovely foil to my usual process.

This video was shot in two locations: Ivanpah Dry Lake on the Nevada/California state line, 5273.577 miles from home, where Lenka and I met at NABX; and 0.233 miles from home, on Wimbledon Common, where Autumn (Fall) has just arrived.
