M83 have shared the video for "Steve McQueen" off Hurry Up, We're Dreaming. The piece, directed by Balthazar Auxietre and Sylvain Derosne, conjures an abstract sense of childlike exploration, depicting a boy in a yellow suit, science and engineering experiments, and a pack of roaming animal figurines.
This clip is the result of a video contest run by Genero.tv, which invited filmmakers around the globe to interpret the song. The only instruction given was that the song is "not about the actor!"
M83 headline Pitchfork Music Festival Paris next week. Single-day tickets and two-day passes are still available here.
