Fun fact: that dancer in front at the beginning of this video-striped shirt, mustache, glasses-is Spike Jonez. He directed this music video. And the excellent video for Weapon of Choice by the same artist ( [this video] ), as well as Sabotage by The Beastie Boys, and the excellent mind-fuck movies Being John Malkovich, Adaptation, and Her (which he also wrote and won a Best Original Screenplay Oscar for). It’s funny watching a contemporary creative genius just kinda goof around.
