Roger Spy self-directs an experimental lockdown concept for new release Elsewhen (ii). The lo-fi visual is filmed on a small Go-Pro style camera, capturing an 18-hour period in which Spy creates a DIY set from bin bags and tin foil, edging into the territory of conceptual art. There are bright-eyed hazmat characters, mysterious boxes and glitchy, creepy performance, intertwined to create a haunting and isolated atmosphere.After the tongue-in-cheek pop of his video for Did You Go To Masturbation School, released back in January, this is a real change of direction: the avant garde side of Roger Spy.
