Radiohead - House Of Cards

http://blog.cartelagency.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/radiohead.jpg

In Radiohead’s video for “House of Cards”, no cameras or lights were used. Instead, 3D plotting technologies collected information about the shapes and relative distances of objects. The video was created entirely with visualizations of that data.  The final result is beautiful and haunting.  Watch it HERE

Cee-Lo Green - Fuck You

Normally a title like this would turn me off the tune.  This is an exception.

In addition to the memorable chorus, there are great lines like…

I pity the fool that falls in love with you
(oh shit she’s a golddigger)

Well
(just thought you should know nigga)
