Radiohead's new video for "House of Cards" is infinitely more inspiring than those NBA Playoff's Half & Half spots that used the song. The video's creators crafted the unstable, ultrasound-scan landscape using two technologies for capturing 3-D imagery (the tech-speaky Geometric Informatics and Velodyne LIDAR), completely bypassing lights and cameras in the process.

The mind-blowing technology services the song's haunting melody and Thom Yorke's echoing croon is the perfect accompaniment as this digital, rainbow-colored world disintegrates in a samsaric wind.

Via Boing Boing.
