Some music video's are true works of art. The amount of creativity, imagination and thought that is put into some of these 3-4 min videos is astounding.

In that spirit, I decided to open this thread in Tilted Artwork, for us to share music videos that are works of art in their own right.

I believe there already was a thread that went along these lines in Tilted Music, but instead of the videos in this thread being just different or out of the ordinary, I would like them to be mainly concerned with the visual aesthetics of the moving image.

To start things off, I have come across a great music video for Radiohead, that is quite innovative in terms of film and video.

It was made for the song "House of Cards" and it uses no real cameras or lighting. Instead, 3D plotting technologies were used to gather information about the position and shape of the elements in the scenes captured. The entire video was created from this data. The director is James Frost.

Below is the video, and after it is a making of.

Feel free to critique the videos as well, and share some of the music videos you think are art gems in their own right.

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.

Fernando Pessoa, 1918
