Embrace The Light

Filed under: Listen To This

CLICK HERE to check out Radiohead's super cool new video, House of Cards made completely with lasers!

No cameras or lights were used. Instead two technologies were used to capture 3D images: Geometric Informatics and Velodyne LIDAR. Geometric Informatics scanning systems produce structured light to capture 3D images at close proximity, while a Velodyne Lidar system that uses multiple lasers is used to capture large environments such as landscapes. In this video, 64 lasers rotating and shooting in a 360 degree radius 900 times per minute produced all the exterior scenes.

Thoughts???????

      I worked on this video, Tom is an amazing person. Very down to earth and a gentlemen. This video was awesome.

      Brilliant. Just like the song…

      Whether or not it's the best, it's always different from them. Didn't p-nasty say that they are irrelevant?

      I might think it was cool if I could sit through a Radiohead song with out falling asleep.

    34. splif says – reply to this

      36

      you all crack me up thinking you're sticking it to perez. you're on his site. an entertainment site where he posts his opinions. who has the last laugh? and we're all allowed to change our minds - it's called being open minded. a concept which has eluded many of you.

      i thought the video was innovative. i love radiohead. thanks for posting.

      45

      perez, you trying to redeem yourself in the eyes of your seven or eight intelligent readers by posting about an actually talented musical act? don't worry, we still hate you. then again we do keep coming back..

    50. 50

      Beautiful - I actually sat thru the whole song - gotta find a way to d/l it for free……………..



    51. 51

      54

      radiohead are the best band in the world AND they're saving the planet, unlike retard brad pitt who FLEW in for the night to watch them in italy. some environmentalist you are, loser brad.

    55. peep says – reply to this


      55

      is this a joke? terrible song and even worse video. maybe they shoulda used a camera. there is no 3d here, only fuzzy video.

    56. chi c says – reply to this


      56

      LOVE IT.
      So glad to see a band doing something innovative instead of having a bunch of hoochie mammas with their fat bodies stuffed into too-tight clothes just shake-it-on-crack.
      Wish more artists would try new stuff like this. I don't care how raw it is. Just do something different.

    57. Natal says – reply to this


      57

      Re: LIEZY – nice way to toot your own horn dorky! Are you an intern or something….did you get someone their coffee while the cool kids were working on the video?

    69. Layla says – reply to this


      69

      Radiohead will always take you to a new place in their videos…new and unfamiliar. So much more refreshing that the rehashed shitty 80s pop videos that usually grace this site.

      Thanks!

    70. SonJa says – reply to this


      70

      I'm sorry, were you not making fun of them a few months ago, Perez? Aren't they so 1990s?

      Why do I even bother reading this website anymore?

      (is it weird that I'm actually getting angry because I think Radiohead is too good to even be mentioned on perezhiton.com?)

    79. Ashle says – reply to this


      79

      i thought Perez hated Radiohead. Wasn't he making fun of them in other posts? Thom Yorke's too intellectual for him.
