Entertaining viral for the festival of speed, featuring Dougie Lampkin riding around Goodwood house, just down the road from where I work. The ‘blimey’ guy at 2:40 looks like the incredibly talented boss of the motor circuit (and most likely the person who made this all happen).

Wow! Stunning, almost biological, concept design by BMW, which uses a layer of stretchy fabric over everything to cut down air resistance.
I wonder if it breathes too?

Brilliant rendition of Nude by Radiohead, performed entirely by old tech. The Sinclair zx loading bit at the beginning had the memories flooding back (it lasts for about 1:10, if you prefer to skip).
It doesn’t sound great, as it’s not supposed to.
Sinclair ZX Spectrum - Guitars (rhythm & lead)
Epson LX-86 Dot Matrix Printer - Drums
HP Scanjet 4c - Bass Guitar
Hard Drive array - Act as a collection of bad speakers - Vocals & FX

This is a pretty noval approach to filming a video, especially if you have no budget for camera’s, lighting or those big silver, padded boxes. Manchester band; The Get Out Clause, performed for their video in-front of CCTV cameras, then requested the footage under the Data Protection Act. A little bit of editing and a fascinating music video was born.

A pretty cool visual effect, adding food colouring to milk then a little washing-up liquid creates this crazy psychedelic show.

This is a really well produced video showing off the extreme fingerboarding (or extreme video compositing) talents of Alexis Milant.
