original description

Data is all around us and this Radiohead music video and the making of video below illustrate how digital information (Information sent by lasers, reflected off objects and then sensed and recorded by computers) can draw very real and compelling moving images. No cameras or lights were used. Instead two technologies were used to capture 3D images: Geometric Informatics and Velodyne LIDAR. I have seen LIDAR (Laser recording cameras) used before to capture still images. I have seen these “cameras” used in Chicago for architecture projects. This is sort of like that and completely unlike it because this is now an art form and a cinema experience. Check it. Here’s what the edited and polished video looks like. Want to manipulate the data and cut your own version of the music video? Knock yourself out, Radiohead has released the data behind their video for “House of Cards” for you to manipulate. Visit http://code.google.com/radiohead for the code and information on how to manipulate it. Speaking of data here is the latest Comscore data for May, 2008 Over 12 billion online videos were consumed for the month. The highlights 74 percent of the total U.S. Internet audience viewed online video. The average online video viewer watched 228 minutes of video. 82.2 million viewers watched 4.1 billion videos on YouTube.com (50.4 videos per viewer). 54.8 million viewers watched 703 million videos on MySpace.com (12.8 videos per viewer). 6.8 million viewers watched 88 million videos on Hulu.com (13.0 videos per viewer). The duration of the average online video was 2.7 minutes. Share on Facebook Print or e-mail this item. These icons link to social bookmarking sites where readers can share and discover new web pages.
