The Discovery of the One

"The Discovery of the One" is the follow up of "The Spider Song".

The Piano leaves the scene to the tambourine and the Cajon but you can clearly find out the same insistent (cit.) melody of the first project of the group.
Even if everything is enriched with a big step forward: the conquer of the One!

Enjoy it!

The Great Tits Song



Since we put a nest box in our garden, a couple of Great Tit (Parus major) chose it as own home. They don't seem be scared of us and differently from our neighbours,  they enjoy our music.
Today, we got a quite sunny afternoon and we realized this timeline with a very nice framing.
Like all the our videos from the realization up to the upload on the web pass just a couple of hours.
The music is written and performed by Bamboo Santos in the while of the making of the video.
The quote in the beginning of the video is from "Blackbird" of The Beatles.

Enjoy it!

The Spider Bamboo Strips : The spider meal around the Moon



It was a monday holiday afternoon.  It was evening. We were watching a funny movie (The Hangover) when someone saw our mate TheSpider involved in a delicious mosquito-based meal. The Bamboo Production soul came out immediately... Taken camera and guitar we performed a meta-composition about the gravitational meal of our buddy!


Enjoy it!

Parallel Strips: Second Dimension



                  "Reality leaves a lot to the imagination"
John Lennon 



"Second Dimension" is the second layer of the Multiple-Universe of Bamboo Production. From this point of view you can appreciated some details which were blinded from the global view, as the good reef played from the guitarist, at the time Bamboo Santos.

On this video we had the opportunity to sync even the english subtitles.

Good deep immersion in the reality of Bamboo Production!


The Bamboo








Bamboo
[,bamˈboō]
      n 
1    any tall treelike tropical or semitropical fast-growing grass of the genus Bambusa, having hollow     woody-walled stems with ringed joints and edible young shoots (bamboo shoots) 
2    the stem of any of these plants, used for building, poles, and furniture 
3    any of various bamboo-like grasses of the genera Arundinaria, Phyllostachys or Dendrocalamus 
4    modifier   made of bamboo

Bamboo curtain 
[ˌbamˈboō  ˈkərtn]
      n   (esp. in the 1950s and 1960s) the political and military barrier to communications around the People's Republic of China 
Bamboozle
[bamˈboōzəl]
1    cheat, con     (informal)   deceive, defraud, delude, dupe, fool, hoax, hoodwink, pull a fast one on     (informal)   skin     (slang)   swindle, trick 
2    baffle, befuddle, confound, confuse, mystify, perplex, puzzle, stump 


Several Asian cultures, including that of the Andaman Islands, believe humanity emerged from a bamboo stem. We have some doubts about it. But we are so impressed from the generative power of the Bamboo (here and here) and from the broad use, both real and methaphoric, in differet human cultures.
Bamboo was widespread used in early China as a medium for written documents  (Bamboo Strips).
Now we would like to indroduce a new kind of communication : The Bamboo Video Strips.
This format contains a lot of features and skills of the Bamboo plant: the extemporaneous of the artistic production like the fast growing of the plant coupled with the longevity of the message thanks to web, the generative mithes like the infinite possibility of the creativity. At the same time our videos can make you bamboozle, because you can find in the state of mind to think "It's art...I guess".
Moreover, one of the main aim of this project is to try to overcome the "Bamboo Curtain" of the web anonymity.


Bamboo's long life makes it a Chinese symbol of longevity, while in India it is a symbol of friendship.  
For us is a symbol of symplicity, multivalence and creativity. And of course is the symbol of a lot of fun!


Parallel Universes



"... if there are an infinite number of parallel universes, 
in one of them there's probably a Sheldon who 
doesn't believe parallel universes exist. "





According the statement of Dr. Sheldon Cooper, there is at least one Universe where the Bamboo Production can make a high quality video. And here we are going!
With "Parallel Universes" we tried to figure out a multidimension jam session with three of each of us playing different instruments at the same time. 
Such video follows the new direction of the shorts video and it was arranged in just a couple of hours start form the ideation to the upload on the web. This last aspect is very important in the Bamboo Production philosophy: the unrehearsed play of the art ("alla cazzo di cane").

The different layers of the reality of Bamboo Production will follow up soon!

For the time enjoy the "Parallel Universe"

The Spider Song


"The Spider Song" is the first project of the BambooProduction and fix the born of the group.
The video and the music are recorded in our studios, or better, in our home living-room.
The music is write and play by my-self, Billy Can. It is my first production so don't be to much high-flown. 
I tried to represent a spider musician floating in the clouds... I hope I did a good job for be the first shot!

Enjoy it!
