WTF

Trippy music videos are a dime a dozen today*, but I like this one for the simplicity of the way it's made from just one video effect, applied to cleverly-used props in a single shot.

The song is WTF by band OK Go. They are famous for their videos, so this probably isn't news to anyone either, but I only just found out about it.

* Such as Pon The Floor and Keep It Goin Louder by Major Lazer, which I just saw for the first time, but which are also probably old news to everyone else.

this reminds me a lot of salvia, strangely enough. i always see what i've called "people chains" on salvia that are VERY similar to the guys walking by in this video. very cool. thanks

OK I think I figured out the algorithm for the OK Go video. They're shooting in front of a green screen or some other chromakey; the algorithm is "any pixel that contains the chromakey in the input image gets reverted to the value of that pixel from the previous frame". So simple!
