Man in a Suitcase

Today's Krusty update is a music video inspired by one of my all-time favorite bands: The Police. Ever since the 80s when I was listening to their music when it was new, I've been inspired at times to do my own renditions of their album covers such as Ghost in the Machine's 7-segment display-inspired artwork on my Commodore 64.

Fast-forward many years and I still listen to their music very often - usually when I'm in the groove working or writing code on my workstation.

This video started very simply as a regular video of Krusty in the suitcase only, but I decided that was kind of boring so I started to jazz it up - and now, 5 days later I have this.

For those who aren't Police fans, the red/yellow/blue paint brush strokes are part of the signature look of the Synchronicity album cover.

Originally this was going to be a funny video, but it evolved into something more.

Enjoy and have a great weekend!

 

IMPORTANT: Ever since Flickr upgraded its interface, many of my contacts have complained about not being able to see my videos on Windows computers.
