Poetic Collective

Fluid poetics

As an almost instant follow-up to yesterday's post with the new Film Trucks edit starring Léo Valls and Tom Botwid, today, the homies over at Poetic Collective (Tom's company) just dropped the entirety of their latest video offering: "FLUID", via TransWorld SKATEboarding. Simon Kallkvist and Samuel Norgren's excellent segment from said full-length production had been floating around the Interwebs for a few days already but now, every bit of the twenty-minute timeline assemblage is available for you to stream in the intended order. All of which will be set to the beat of various bench slappies and feet stepping on the ground - one that will not just hammer your eardrums in but also your retinas. One more incentive to think urban environments differently - we'll take it!

Capital P

This clip right here cements the "P" in Peter Johansson - or Jamal P, as social media seemingly demonstrates he'd rather be named; but also the "P" in Poetic Collective, the homie company from Scandinavia that keeps giving and rising - and we're talking a region that's already quite there up North. LIVE has introduced you to the man before, via his recent appearances in Markus Bengtsson's videos; today, it is as a Junkyard representative that he comes back, earning himself a full web part filmed around Copenhagen, Malmö and Paris through a camera wielded by the same operator, with some Super 8 touches of his own. Capital P's interpretation of the streets is less of the punishing type than such a nickname would imply, though, as it relies more on an almost impertinent eye for both originality and simplicity. That, the quiet intensity and the numerous smiles: something to be reckoned with!

Swedish slappies

Our Swedish homies over at Poetic Collective just earned themselves the luxury of a worldwide-scale collaboration with Film Trucks, ex-Cliché founder Jérémie Daclin's new company and, as though to make it all the more official, the virus known for atrophying one's ollie muscles was spread all the way to and around Malmö - where some fine lads await us to reassure that the disease may not be that lethal after all. All filmed by Markus Bengtsson, also behind the recent Copenhagen edit: "Pas De Problème..."!
