Four Years of Waiting: Free Gilad Shalit
This work was the one that opened the Re:Cover Project. It’s a visualizing of a song I cannot get out my head for quite some time - a song dedicated to Gilad Shalit who is being held in captive since June 2006. I hope that someday soon Gilad will be back home with his family and this beautiful song will become… just another beautiful song.
Single Cover .48 - Send Me an Angel
It’s been a long time since I’ve posted a Re:Cover work. But I just couldn’t stay indifferent to this angel, waiting patiently in a small dark alley… and a song started to play in my head.

Update: Shame on me! I just realized the visual concept is a rip off from U2’s Achtung Baby cover art. I haven’t touched this album for a decade! Oh well….

The Re:Cover Project
I never played a musical instrument. I can’t read notes, and I can’t identify the cords of a song. Yet music was always a significant part of my life.
Years ago - in a different lifetime - music was a real obsession for me. This was before the time of MP3, iPod, Last.fm, and Jamendo. The only way to be an obsessive music junky back then was to buy records (sounds better than “buying CDs”), and the only way to discover new music was to listen to commercial radio stations and to watch MTV.
Being as obsessive as I was, this clearly wasn’t enough. (more…)
