radiohead - house of cards


this video has been making the rounds recently, so bear w/me if it's all too redundant for you. in case you don't know the back story, no cameras were used in the making. all the imagery was created digitally, from real world environments.
"...two technologies were used to capture 3D images: Geometric Informatics and Velodyne LIDAR. Geometric Informatics scanning systems produce structured light to capture 3D images at close proximity, while a Velodyne Lidar system that uses multiple lasers is used to capture large environments such as landscapes. In this video, 64 lasers rotating and shooting in a 360 degree radius 900 times per minute produced all the exterior scenes."
