Artist - Björk
Director - Chris Cunningham
Producer - Björk, Howie B
The music video was directed by Chris Cunningham and featured two intimate robots.
The video won multiple awards, including two MTV Video Music Awards for Breakthrough Video and Best Special Effects. It was also nominated for a Grammy for Best Short Form Music Video (it lost to Korn's "Freak on a Leash"). It is on permanent exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. The video also placed in "MTV2's 100 Best Videos Ever" coming in at number 1.
The video starts with a robotic Björk lying on a white platform in the center of a sterile room being assembled or repaired by mechanical arms in what appears to be a clinic for robots. Even before finishing the assembly, the first Björk robot meets another Björk robot, who joins in the song with her. They start to kiss passionately as machines work on assembling electronics in their backs.
According to the website of Glassworks, the company which did the special effects for Cunningham, SOFTIMAGE and Flame software were used for 3D elements and 2D compositing, respectively.
Contrary to appearances, the two robots in the film were non-working models. When the film I, Robot screened in 2004, some people found the robot design in that movie to be similar to the design of the robots in the video directed by Cunningham — he has not commented.
