RADIOHEAD have reworked and amalgamated two tracks
from their 'AMNESIAC' album for a specially
commissioned video, which has been produced by the
company behind APHEX TWIN's 'WINDOWLICKER' and
BJORK's 'ALL IS FULL OF LOVE', NME.COM can reveal.
The short film to accompany the combined version of
'Pull/Pulk Revolving Doors' and 'Like Spinning Plates'
was unveiled last night (November 29) as the
highlight of the inaugural Projectors Animation
Festival held at the Centre For Contemporary Arts
in Glasgow.
It was introduced by Susie Wilson of Picture On The
Wall, the Glasgow animation company who provided the
computer graphics which are a key element of the film.
As 'Pull/Pulk Revolving Doors' - backed with images
of killer whales swimming in darkness under UV light
and sinister, barely-visible figures - segues into
Like Spinning Plates', the images grow increasingly
strange. A bizarre computer-generated image shows a
machine taking shape, with conjoined twins, linked
at the waist, spinning at high speed in what appears
to be a centrifuge. It culminates with the crying
infants' torsos ballooning and their ribs, made of
blue-patterned china, emerging through their chests.
The film, which took four months to make, was directed
by relative newcomer Johnny Hardstaff for Black Dog.
Hardstaff's work to date has included films for
PlayStation and Freestylers, while Black Dog's credits
include Aphex Twin, Bj顤k and Kylie Minogue's 'Can't
Get You Out Of My Head'.
There had been some doubt over whether or not Picture
On The Wall would be allowed to screen the video, but
they were given the green light by Radiohead and their
label at the eleventh hour. However, all did not go
smoothly, with a fire alarm interrupting the screening
forcing the venue to be evacuated. It was resumed after
the fire brigade gave the all-clear.
At press time, it was unclear when or if the film will
be made available for general public consumption.
