Avant-garde creators Masa Kawamura , Aramique & Qanta Shimizu have always been on the cutting edge of technology & visuals. Lauded globally as innovators, their latest creation is a uniquely constructed and executed video for Cut Copy ’s “We Are Explorers,” which premiered today with FastCompany .
The video features 3D-printed characters exploring the streets of Los Angeles, every frame of which has been created with stop-motion photography. A compelling adventure story, Kawamura & Aramique explain: “we wanted it to be tactile, to feel like a real adventure and felt we could accomplish this by creating a tangible character that we would shoot outside on location in every place.” Check out the “We Are Explorers” video HERE , and we encourage you to post & share!

Giving fans the opportunity to live their own “We Are Explorers” adventure story, BitTorrent is providing access to the 3D files so they can print them themselves & creative their own narratives of exploration. As Kawamura & Aramique elaborate, “Our goal with BitTorrent is to hand everything over to the public…our storyboards, stop-motion technical plans, 3D files for every figurine, and see what they do with it. Even if people just print the 8 figurines that make up the running sequence there’s so much they can do and so many places the story can go.”
