Radiohead's 3-D Music Video Done Without Cameras

The band Radiohead made a music video for their House of Cards song without the use of cameras. Instead, they used something called Geometrics Informatics and Velodyne Lidar. Pitchfork says that, "The Geometric Informatics scanning system employs structured light to capture detailed 3D images at close proximity, and was used to render the performances of Radiohead's Thom Yorke, the female lead, and several partygoers. The Velodyne Lidar system uses multiple lasers to capture large environments in 3D, in this case 64 lasers rotating and shooting in a 360 degree radius 900 times per minute, capturing all of the exterior scenes and wide party shots."

John Foxx's Fascinating Cathedral Oceans

John Foxx is an English musician, graphic designer and educator who is primarily associated with synthesizer music.

"Cathedral Oceans is an ongoing project by Foxx that stretches back many years and explores ambient sound, washes of reverberated vocals and strings like no other. But it's also been an audio-visual exhibition, from which this DVD essentially comes."
Each ethereal and absolutely stunning track is accompanied by photos that evolve, blend and merge beautifully to take the original's listening experience to new levels of emotion.

The overall effect of Cathedral Oceans’ music is soothing, almost pastoral ambiance created by extensive usage of reverb and echo coupled with Gregorian chanting. As stated, this is an ongoing project and these images and sound come from Cathedral Oceans III which is the latest installment in the fascinating project.

Cathedral Oceans is also an ongoing audio-visual exhibition that has been shown at various art venues in Europe. I absolutely love this stuff.

A collaborative DVD project. Audio by John Foxx, visuals by John Foxx & John Leigh, animations & DVD assembly by John Leigh.

English opera star Lesley Garrett participated in a daredevil stunt organized by the Sky Arts TV channel to promote discounted tickets to the English National Opera. Garrett was hoisted via a crane over the Tower of London where she performed, perched on a horizontal platform, for a small audience of very, very avid opera lovers or Sky Arts employees.

I'm gonna be sick.
