"The Rust Belt" is from Metallic Life Review by Matmos (Thrill Jockey Records)

This video, titled "The Golden Age", was created by Jack Colbert:

"The Golden Age animates pocket sized metallic objects sourced from metal detecting —from pull tabs to gold rings. The object’s unique eroded surfaces overlap through replacement animation, and the cyclical rhythm of the film mimics the normalization of discarding and replacing belongings."
