The music video for "China" by Ashtar Command is inspired by the late 19th and early 20th century practice of post-mortem photography - taking life-like pictures of recently deceased loved ones to memorialize them. Combining different film techniques like stop-motion animation, collage animation and motion graphics, director Sofia Garza-Barba takes us inside 4 dying minds as they are being photographed, and as death is coming to take them.
