"White Gemini" is a music video for NY-based techno artist, Beshken. The film idea was inspired by my background in graffiti. The song uses samples from NASA’s 1965 Project Gemini, where Ed White made history as the first American astronaut to float in space. Two years later, in 1967, White lost his life in a takeoff test for his next mission. The music video is an abstract visualization of White’s ghost here on Earth. In the film, White's ghost draws Gemini symbols to establish his existence on Earth.
