Shape Memory is a song by Robin Kester, inspired by the shape memory effect; how certain metals snap back to their former shapes when heated.

The lyric video explores this concept by using simple squares that morph and snap between different sizes. This movement is then coupled with an uncontrollable colour palette, which comes out to play when the shapes overlap. The outcome is a mesmerising animation that morphs (as if dancing) to the beat of the song.
