A Hosts Worst Nightmare,

at a dinner party someone drops something,



well that nightmare is well taken care of in this new CGI animation by Optical Arts, the video depicts said dinner-party, ceramic plates and bowls shatter, red wine cascades from long-stemmed glasses, and sharp knives dive to the floor, despite its explosive scenes, “Tocatta” subsequently shows the same dinnerware, drinks, and plates of boiled eggs seamlessly repair and float upward as whole objects, the animation is set to the opening section of Johann Sebastian Bach’s Toccata and Fugue in D Minor, one of the German composer’s most recognized works, the piece explores “the nature of time, the relentless violence of entropy and creative energy and its relationship to music itself,” the London-based creative studio writes in a statement. Another nod to the iconic composer, the dark, opening scenes are shots from Eisenach, Germany, where Bach was born and lived for the first few years of his life, to see more of Optical Arts’ productions, head to Vimeo and Instagram, also you might want to listen to the full version of Johann Sebastian Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D Minor BWV 565 played by organist Hans-André Stamm on the Trost-Organ of the Stadtkirche in Waltershausen, Germany, if so you can do here, what an amazing video.
