Check out this video of OK Go, where they march through the streets of LA playing music with a bunch of people. They teamed up with Range Rover for this project and I guess they were linked up to some sort of GPS that tracked their paths on a map, forming a big OK GO… [...]

I came across Danny Clinch‘s photographs after googling the director of the Absolute Jay-Z film from the post above.
