Radiohead/House of Cards

Just a quick one……………………………………………….

Trend-buckers Radiohead have released a video made without cameras or lights. You can download the data and play with it yourself here.

It’s also well worth having a look at the Making Of to see how the technology works. The potential of this sort of scanning system in film and visuals to create some groundbreaking visual narratives is exciting, possibly even as adaptable as Michel Gondry’s Bullet Time technique. As far as promoting a song goes, allowing fans to download the scanner data from Google Code for their own creative gains is pretty innovative and in keeping with the band’s mission to rip up the pop marketing rule book and line our skulls with the shreds.
