I wish the camera had been mounted more securely. It was like Daft Punk meets The Blair Witch Project. Still neat, tho.

That was pretty spiffy. The hands one has always been my favourite.

Oh I see, this is the modern take on Silent Monks Sing the Hallelujah Chorus!

Holy shit that hands video is about to turn 11 years old! Also I do not know how they did that in one take / how many takes it took to get one good one, and I wonder what they are doing with their lives now.

7segment: probably correct. I rewound enough to make sure I was not technically wrong :) but not enough to find the perfect point to make a title. (I stopped myself at trying to make the doots and the . actually match.

The shaky cam turned me off until the wide shot of OMG It's LEGO too! Then it gets a pass.

The hands is exactly the amount of dedication and effort that made this so awesome.

But what really hit me was the GEB cover-ish static crystaline structure whose meaning comes from a shifting perspective crossed with the technology restriction of the media akin to a recent 8-bit graphics thing that probably the X% of metafilter would know already and the rest wouldn't understand.

Anyways.... enjoy for what it is.

This was great, but I really wish they'd added some rhythmic camera bob during the pauses in the vocal line.

How many of these have been made? I never get tired of them, and luckily I like the song enough to hear the whole thing again and again every time I click on a related video.

Here's not one, but two Daft Bodies, and a Daft Arms!

HBFS is just so damn pervasive. There's not much you can't do with it.
