להקת הנחל - הבן יקיר לי (by guyal1111) Mindbendingly unnerving psychedelia (by the Israeli army’s entertainment unit!), circa 1968. It changes, a lot, at one point. Thanks to Dafna for the pointer.

A video by my amazing spouse (loosely inspired by Thom Andersen’s “Get Out of the Car,” I think)…

somethingintheclouds:

Vampire teeth. Portland, 2011.

(I’m experimenting with making short videos resembling my photos. I’ll never give up my true artistic love, still photography, but this is fun.)

Fifth Column! I loved them! I put out a single by them! I had no idea this video existed!

krecs:

More from the archives: Fifth Column’s music video for “Donna”, from their album 36-C (KLP026). “Donna” was also released as the 33rd volume of the International Pop Underground, entitled “Donna” b/w “All Women Are Bitches” (IPU033).
