Take a trip with FKA Twigs in a hallucinatory new concept film for Google Glass, entitled #throughglass. Watch her, and her doppelgängers, perform an amazing and bizarre dance. This is FKA Twigs directorial debut and it’s completely mesmerising. The stunning, highly-regarded choreography, combined with the use of lightening fast technology makes Google Glass look cooler than it ever has before.

FKA Twigs uses the glasses to search everything from moving footage of Benjamin Milan and British krumper Dominant to manga-inspired eye makeup. The score for the short film is a kaleidoscopic reworking of her debut single, Video Girl, along with parts of Glass & Patron, a track she has never released. The featureless white expanse of the background, plus the über cool first-person mirror shots and the incredible dancing makes for a truly bizarre, but quite beautiful video.
The Mercury Prize-nominated artist is about to go on tour throughout North America, with one show in Canada and a few shows in Europe.
Google Glass went on sale in the US on April 25, 2013 and in the UK on June 24 2014, with the high-tech wearable purchasable to anyone over the age of 18.
