Hasta La Ideas

Created from a mix of vintage Super-8 footage and abstract effects, San Francisco artist Alex Kopps’ ‘Displacement’ documents an obscure surf subculture that emerged in the 70s, as well as the aesthetic culture that accompanied. Watch the trailer after the jump.

A little background on the film: The ‘subculture’ that Kopps documents was resultant of/inspired by the surfboard designs of George Greenough, which were later refined by Greg Liddle. Back in the 60s, when longboards were the standard, Greenough instead designed and rode short kneeboards. Beyond ‘Displacement’, Kopps has created a diverse body of work ranging from more short films to paintings and books. See more on his site.
