Death Cab for Cutie vs. Bill Barminski

"Walter Robot" — aka BB pal Bill Barminski and writer Christoper Louie — directed the new Death Cab For Cutie music video "Underneath the Sycamore." It's a terrific piece of neo-noir animation! And what really delights me is the backstory: According to DCfC bassist (and delightful happy mutant) Nick Harmer, he was first turned on to Barminski's brilliance back in 2009 on Boing Boing! Nick saw Bill's work on BB and then commissioned him to direct their "Grapevine Fires" video. And now this new one! Yet another great example of what bOING bOING patron saint Timothy Leary meant when he said, "Find the others."
