This is a beautiful song. Its on replay through my speakers, a lot recently (you’ll know if you follow me<\/a> on last.fm). That is, the single from Radiohead, titled the House of Cards. From the excellent album, In Rainbows (you know, complete download available DRM-free, for any price you want to pay for, even zero dollars<\/strong>.) Beautiful lyrics.<\/p>\n

I don’t wanna be your friend
\nI just wanna be your lover
\nNo matter how it ends
\nNo matter how it starts<\/p>\n

Forget about your house of cards
\nAnd I’ll do mine<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Of course, the video<\/a> is equally interesting. Because no cameras or lights were used to generate it. Read more about the technology<\/a> behind it (how to capture, and render 3D data). Joi Ito has a good post<\/a> summarising the important bits: the data (not the music) used to make the video is under a Creative Commons license, the source code to make it happen is under the Apache license. Good stuff all around.<\/p>\n
