The video for Theophilus London’s second Green Label Sound single “Flying Overseas” feat. Devonté Hynes & Solange Knowles, was shot on a beach near Malibu, CA. “I wanted the video to be less concept-y and very minimal,” said London. “A very personal and emotional visual piece.” The outcome is full of psychedelic elements. “The technique for creating the datamosh effects was different from anything our crew had done before,” said director Tim Nackashi. “We filmed Theophilus’ face and fed that into the computer as data. It was a great experiment. Theophilus is a true artist.”
