"Infrastructure world collapse"
Means: the failure of all worldly communications. Forget your fancy phonographs and talking pictures, check out the future. The future belongs to lasers and Radiohead.
Radiohead - House Of Cards
Thom Yorke doesn't want to be your friend, merely your lover. This video uses no cameras or lights (a.k.a., none of that primitive 21st century mumbo-jumbo). We now have "3D plotting technologies collected information about the shapes and relative distances of objects." Furthermore, "the video was created entirely with visualizations of that data."
Does that not blow your mind?
When I first read the comments for this video, people on YouTube we're like, "this sucks", "what the fuck", "I miss old Radiohead videos".
Well, I think that sucks. This is the first of its kind. Its snowy, but let's see you do any better. Plus, it's supposed to be this way. It's art. It's over people's heads. Including mine. Complicated computer technology makes me want to go play original Nintendo and be content with that time's technology.
A beautiful, surreal song. Got into it in the middle of my summer, when things kind of leveled off and I go used to being at home. Brings up strange, raw emotions. Then again, it's only a song, right?
Off "In Rainbows". In stores now.
