In April, with the clubs shut down and musicians feeling adrift, expressive pop artist Mobley embarked on an ambitious project. He randomly paired 15 musicians and 15 filmmakers to create a visual album with a process structured around the surrealist drawing game exquisite corpse.  In the game, a scene is formed as each player draws a part then folds the paper to obscure their contribution before handing off to the next player.
