Robots in Music Videos: Beck – Hell Yes

Beck had four dancing Sony QRIOs in his video for Hell Yes, which is pretty cool. At the time, there were only four QRIOs in existence, and are all present in the video. I will post more on QRIOs in the future.

Here we have Flight of the Conchords – The Humans are Dead. Apologies on the credits sequence but this is the only version in which they were dressed as robots that included the binary solo. I feel it is my duty to point out that it isn’t true binary but I guess that’s covered by [...]

So, in homage to our new masters (pending imminent takeover) here you will find a new robot each and every day of 2010, whether they be in pictures, art, videos or other forms.
