Something For The Weekend: David O'Reilly's cultural picks

David O'Reilly is a multidisciplinary Irish artist based in Los Angeles, whose unique oeuvre spans animation, video games, and interactive art.

David started his career as an animator, creating numerous short films which inspired a wave of lo-fi digital aesthetics. In collaboration with Spike Jonze, he created the holographic video games in the film, Her.
