Justice Built a Real-Time “Powerful and Minimalistic” Art Installation for New Video

Parisian electro rockers Justice announced last month they’d be back with a new album before the end of the year, with their third studio album Woman due to arrive in November. We were treated to an early listen to its single “Randy,” and a rather cool video has now arrived.

Justice recruited director and artist Thomas Jumin to make the video, for which he created an art installation of 25 interconnected TV sets displaying animated graphics, lyrics, and film footage to accompany the track in real time.

“We simply filmed it like one would film an art installation, so as to retain the objects’ authority and repetitive simplicity,” Thoimas told culture blog It’s Nice That .

Thomas said the idea for the installation came from wanting to channel the lighting aesthetic of a live show, with a result that was both “powerful and minimalistic” in its intentions.

“The object itself, the CRT Trinitron by SONY, is iconic for people of a certain generation for its design and for its specific rendering of the image. The idea was to build an installation made of 25 screens from 1987 and to use them with video controllers and analogue converters.”

Justice’s Woman arrives on Ed Banger Records on November 18 and is available for preorder . Lead single “Randy” is out now; watch the video below.
