Amon Tobin: Keep Your Distance (User Made)
Footage from Hardware (also known as M.A.R.K. 13), a post-apocalyptic science-fiction horror film from 1990, set to Amon Tobin's "Keep Your Distance" (Foley Room).
Note: I was just fooling around in Sony Vegas without really knowing the software so there's more than a few editing goofs - especially @ 00:58, a few frames of opening credits that I neglected to cut. I must've blinked and missed it... Don't take it too seriously..
FINAL NOTE: The video is kind of ruined now with the widescreen format. I might redo it. Someday. Hopefully before 2012.

DJ Spooky: Rebirth of a Nation (Trailer)
http://www.rebirthofanation.com
DJ Spooky's Rebirth of a Nation is a film project based on a remix of D.W. Griffith's infamous 1915 film Birth of a Nation. The original film was based on a novel and theater play by Thomas Dixon entitled The Clansman - essentially what Dj Spooky is doing is applying dj technique to cinema in a way that parallels, deconstructs and remixes the original. Thus Rebirth of a Nation DJ Spooky's Rebirth of a Nation has been touring for several years and has drawn acclaim around the world. From the Herod Atticus Theater at the base of the Acropolis in Greece, to the London IMAX - Europe's largest movie screen - Dj Spooky has presented the remix as an engagement with film, music, and contemporary art. He likes to think of it as "film as found object" in the same sense that artists such as Marcel Duchamp, Jeff Koons, Andy Warhol, and David Hammons, amongst many others, have fostered creative investigations into the idea of found objects, cinema, and "appropriation art."

Amen Break Documentary
This fascinating, brilliant 20-minute video narrates the history of the "Amen Break," a six-second drum sample from the b-side of a chart-topping single from 1969 by The Winstons. This sample was used extensively in early hip-hop and sample-based music, and became the basis for drum-and-bass and jungle music -- a six-second clip that spawned several entire subcultures. Nate Harrison's 2004 video is a meditation on the ownership of culture, the nature of art and creativity, and the history of a remarkable music clip.
