2. Michel Gondry: Björk - "Human Behaviour"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=36Srr08PN_Y And here is the aforementioned 'other one'...few working relationships are quite as radiant and expansive as the pairing of Icelandic experimental genius Björk and French experimental genius Michel Gondry. Together they have crafted in excess of eight music videos; all of them joyous, but the 1993 breakout track "Human Behaviour" which propelled the brilliant "Debut" LP into the limelight, had to be the pick of the bunch. Gondry is a acute master of mise-en-scene; constructing a frame with remarkable intricacy and purpose, and has highlighted this throughout his feature career too. Titles such as Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind (2004) and The Science Of Sleep (2006) serve as beautiful, bespoke examples. Much like Jonze - for which the twosome and videographer Chris Cunningham own a production company together - Gondry has a vast catalogue of videos for the likes of The White Stripes, The Chemical Brothers, Kanye West and Radiohead.
