Lindsey Testolin creates “An Average Idea” for Love in October A lot of TLC went into this frenetic Dada fever dream created by Lindsey Testolin for Twin Cities band Love in October. It has the anxious energy of Virgil Widrich’s Fast Film and bits of it remind me of Jonas Odell’s stuff, but “An Average Idea” is a little more DIY, a little more off-the-cuff. And I’m fairly certain there’s a narrative thread squirming around in there somewhere… Check out Lindsey’s reel here.
