After I created my video for The Birds, I had someone ask me if it was like a music video. I started thinking about music videos and wondering if they were art. I had seen a video for Radiohead's No Surprises a couple of weeks earlier and it made me really excited about making videos.
This video was directed by Grant Gee. I love it for it's visual simplicity but has a lot of underlying meaning. It is a refreshing break from the flashy and fast music videos we are often subjected to. Grant Gee is quoting saying that the video is: "the perfect image of anxiety and helplessness in the face of technology." Thom Yorke is literally drowning from the mundane world described in this sad song.
