New Interpol Video is ‘Visually Programmed’
An interesting video with a heavy use of programming, courtesy of Aaron Koblin. What is most interesting to me in this situation is that although there seems to be a trend emerging of music videos made with code, it has been confined mostly to individuals doing it with a very DIY spirit (ie unofficially borrowing music, and just posting the video for their friends). This one however is maybe the most blatant example I can think of of the trend crossing into the mainstream with a high profile band and big visibility. Could this momentum continue to explode? There certainly seems to be no shortage of ‘data artists’ who are popping up in ever greater numbers. The niche and minutiae of coding music videos can actually be traced very well by following just one man’s blog: Flight 404.
