I? love Ben Drew, he looks like he’s an East? End heavy who you wouldn’t want to meet in a dark alley, and then he sings with the voice of an angel. It’s a paradox in motion.

Your first thoughts will be why are these mime artists moving so slowly, have they slipped through a temporal wormhole into another reality where time…ticks…really…slowly? But there’s reason behind their snail-like incremental movements—and it’s not just to freak stoners out.

It’s so you get to watch the world whizzing past them, a bit like Neo in the Matrix, if Neo was in an art collective that looked like a bunch of circus rejects.
