Music Videos Over the Decades

After viewing the videos linked to me from the CyberARTS blog I have concluded that  music videos over the decades have moved farther and farther away from being an entertaining visual with the music to now be separate works of art in their own right.

I consider some of the more recent ones works of art as apposed to past ones. Even though some of the past videos for example talking heads were used in art shows I still believe that people only thought they were fantastic because they were using new technologies, not because of artistic value.

Obviously the quality and sophistication of the videos have increased over the decades as people have gotten better at using them and they have improved themselves.

Arcade Fire as improved from the decades because it has full branched out from happy people dancing to the music and has full told a story separate to the music.

In my opinion music videos are going to continue to become more and more pieces of their own and no longer be created to accompany the music, but the other way around.
