Alchemy: the ancient art of turning base metals into gold. The idea that something simple can be magically turned into something that is worth significantly more. Well no one seems to have done it yet, or at least if they have they are keeping it quiet. Making something simple normally takes a lot of hard work and ThruYou is no acceptation. It must have taken hours, but it is true musical and video alchemy. A guy called Kutiman has scoured the internet for musicians and sampled them and cut them together to make some amazing music songs and videos. These totally unconnected clips come together to make something worth significantly better and more valuable than the sum of the parts and that is a big idea. He uses singers and people playing instruments and credits all the people who have unwittingly made it happen. It is magical and my favourite one is I’m New.

About Me
- Tom Tuke-Hastings
- Hi, I’m Tom. I love Big Ideas, they can change the world, but don’t have to cost the earth. Big Ideas are my day job and here I will be blogging on the ones I come across and am involved with. I run All about the Idea, which is a creative marketing consultancy and you guessed it, we specialise in Big Ideas. I live and work in London, but work (and play) takes me all over the place. I love entertaining friends and cooking sensational meals, often on strange regional kit (ever tried an indoor BBQ?). I write cookery books as a hobby to let off a bit of creative steam, try searching for: The Art of the Vodka Jelly on Amazon. I also enjoy skiing, rugby and photography.
