About
I made this spec music video between 1983 and 1985. It took me two years to make, as I was working in Super 8. I sent it to David Byrne whose response was: "It looks great, and I'd love to see more, but I don't really see what it has to do with the song except in terms of beats/edits." –Caveh Zahedi
