TE' un periodo in cui, complice la fine dell'inverno ed i primi tepori primaverili, la voglia di mare, calore, ritmi blandi e giornate lunghe si impossessa della mente. E' cosi' che mi capita di imbattermi in questi video, a tutti gli effetti degli short-movie, in cui i dipinti onirici ed i colori sgargianti ben si amagamano ad una musica intimista e raffinata.
