"He was the guy at art college that can actually paint, they kicked me out," -Thom Yorke 0:43 I find that very motivational. Don't doubt your skills. Very humble of him.
I imagine that doing the artwork and music at the same time and in the same place enabled that. I think it’s like a feedback loop of the music informing the direction of the artwork and the artwork informing the direction of the music. And I think the same thing goes for the listener. The music affects how we see the art and the artwork affects how we hear the music. And it all works symbiotically to create that world in our minds. Idk maybe I’m just rambling.
"I find it hard to look at these without hearing the music... it's in them. It's encoded." Yes. This is how I've always felt about Stanley's work and RH. It's so intrinsically linked. What a great video! So happy to see them both smiling and enjoying themselves.
I find it pretty fascinating how Stanley Donwood is a sort of shadow member of Radiohead, and yet has had a massive influence over the audience's perception of their music. There is a sort of loop between the music and the artwork that makes them inseperable from one another
A very different side of Thom showing through, smiling. even laughing! and seems to be totally at ease. It shows how essential that time was for him and thank you so much Stanley for helping to bring him back and reconnecting to his soul. Wonderful to have an idea of how the covers were created!! I thank the Higher Power who was by their sides during this time. Without it, what might have happened to Thom & Radiohead.....we wouldn't have The Smile and we wouldn't have this "gem" of a musician with us now. His spirit shines through and I hope he finds time to paint?? A very busy man and a joy to behold. Lots of love to you both xx
I was lucky enough to help Stanley build his exhibition in Sydney a few years ago. He gave me and a few mates complete control to let loose with nail guns and spray cans for a few days. Was a great weekend, even cooked him a roast dinner. He's a top bloke.
Kid A's album cover is easily one of the most if not hauntingly beautiful cover. It sounds just like the album. Radiohead is the best band in terms of the album covers portrayed. I mostly bought kid A for the cover itself cause its beautiful to look at. My hair stands up whenever I stare at the cover especially listening to the transition of the panic in National Anthem and the heartbreaking How To Disappear Completely. To explain it shortly, this album can be described by "art is meant to disturb the comfortable and comfort the disturbed." I am simply both.
Inside the Malaysian edition of the album, the first pressing that is, there are additional artwork on oil paper which are amazing. Not available on EU or US edition somehow.
Thom seems to be an adorable person, down to earth, modest. I don't only like the artist or the band radiohead, it seems that everyone in the band are so likeable and simple.
I’ll never forget getting Kid A in the year 2000 and wondering how they made art that somehow looked and felt like such a perfect representation of the music. It was so impressive.
People think Thom is weird. I think he might be the most normal and relatable rockstar of our time. What a decent lad. And Stanley Donwood is just brilliant, this is a real treat. Definitely one of the best bands in terms of artwork, always something there. Took me like 10 days to realize there was another booklet under the CD in the Kid A jewel case. My brain almost exploded.
Greetings from former Yugoslavia. I'm in love in Radiohead, in Stanley's work for a yearssss and I had no idea that Residential Nemesis is about Yugoslavia... it's fascinated. Thank You for compassion..
I always remember when I put the kid a cd on the first time, as I looked at the mountains like things on the cover and everything in its right place played I feel like I was transported into that strange landscape.
I’m a photographer, painter and although not working too seriously at the moment I find much inspiration in Thom’s music/work in all its variations. I often listen while out doing photography or editing, so watching this is incredibly interesting and inspiring. Thank you. 💙
Bloody hell, that was so much fun! And that bit at 4:33 when I did finally notice the top part there... I almost fell off my chair, wow! And, Stanley, my good sir, I do believe the art on an album cover, back... , when invested and inspired, can have a definitive intrinsic value for, as with all art, it can definitively influence the transformation of a posponing the purchase of an album moment into an immediate viceral need to acquire it NOW moment. Ah... art is delicious and necessary.
I always liked the crying demons on page five, especially the one with the running headless man behind it. It looks so clean, like it's a tattoo I would want to get. And the graveyard on page eight. It's so spooky. And on page 13 it's the crying demon again with this really spooky beast walking by a tree on these grid lines. I thought that was really cool looking. I think after listening to Radiohead for 20 years now Kid A is my ultimate favorite record, and I always appreciated the art of the album. SO it's really cool to hear this interview. Thanks!
I tattooed one of those crying minotaur-like demons on my right foot. My girlfriend at the time had gotten some tattoos on her feet, so I thought, I can take that lol. So tender. Hurt so much, so uncomfortable getting it on there. That crying Demon reminds me that even monsters feel. Most times when you meet some real A-hole, it's just a very hurt person who was hurt a long time ago and never learned or was never taught how to cope with pain. It's easier to make someone feel your pain with hurtful words than it is with reason and articulation sometimes. Only love can kill the demon. Be kind. Even to us monsters. Signed, some guy that's been working to solve his anger issues since childhood without professional help.
That’s the coolest part! You can’t look at the artwork without hearing the music encoded in it, or feeling the same things you feel listening to the music as you look at the art. It’s not just music and it’s not just art, and it’s beautiful done because if that.
No other creative output has had such an effect on my life as that which the members of this band, Stanley and Nigel produce. It means something so deep to me. If any of them ever read this I want them to know that I really love them, in the purest and most real way possible. Thank you🙏
Sound, word, music, voice inform what’s seen and created visually as a response and reflection. Yours is a harmonious relationship that’s produced memorable work, thank you for this peek under the tent
I love to paint watercolour whilst listening to Radiohead, and Stanleys art is truly inspiring, loved the recent hardback book for Kid Amnesia, keep up the great work.
The painting at 2:50 has been my favorite piece of art for damn-near 20 years. I have had that as a screensaver, as a wallpaper on my phone on and off. It's so amazing to even have a glimpse of the original.
@@himanshutahiliani1235 Haha. Thank you. Yeah I did. I had her at home so I had my favourite TV show ready, my favourite food and my music playlist. If you can't indulge yourself in labour, when can you lol.
Sitting in awe of this. Radiohead would not be the same without visuals...this art punctuates and communicates every single stage of their growth as a new millenia dawned upon us. Truly wonderful to hear these stories. I'm a bigger fan now than ever before.
@@vickytaylor9604 same! I’ve been seeing them at Blossom every time they’re in town since I was 15. Definitely the best shows! I saw Thom at Playhouse Square a couple years ago, too. I loved that because it was way more intimate.
Back in the late 90's there was a pretty strong rumour on the Radiohead mailinglist and message boards that Stanley Donwood didn't exist and was just a pseudonym for Thom or the collective band, because no one could find out any info on him (the internet was very crude and dishevelled back then). I'm both happy and disappointed that he does, indeed, exist.
I can't imagine being unknown artist and being brought in by a band like Radiohead and given a space to work and collaborate with them in this manner. What a dream come true.
I love Radiohead and Stanley the two got me out of a quite bad rut and really formed my paintings. I haven't seen art like Stanley's before and it is completely capturing of Radiohead's rawness and really fun to do, would recommend giving it a shot if you have the resources
I was astounded by Kid A Mnesia virtual experience, sorry making it into a real life experience was not possible, too. Glad that Balkans, my home, was your inspiration for that painting, I'm sure you'd find more here for some dark art haha. It's been a long time since I'd seen something so inspiring, emotional, original and weird. Keep up the great work!

Amnesiac's artwork as well. The best words to describe that album and it's artwork is either jarring or odd. Or even nightmarish.
@@Christian-97 yes amnesiac is the best album oat for me

So true! I love your comment

I like Thom's cheeky laugh and it's amazing that his speaking voice is so different to his singing voice. He also suits that man bun.
Greetings from former Yugoslavia. I'm in love in Radiohead, in Stanley's work for a yearssss and I had no idea that Residential Nemesis is about Yugoslavia... it's fascinated. Thank You for compassion..
I love these dudes, hearing how deep thoughts and ideas turn into their art.
I’m hoping In Rainbows receives this kind of attention in three years. That album has blossomed beautifully
I always remember when I put the kid a cd on the first time, as I looked at the mountains like things on the cover and everything in its right place played I feel like I was transported into that strange landscape.
Thanks daddy Thom
Probably the best band I’ve ever heard.
They totally achieved what they set out to: the music and the art are inseparable
I’m a photographer, painter and although not working too seriously at the moment I find much inspiration in Thom’s music/work in all its variations. I often listen while out doing photography or editing, so watching this is incredibly interesting and inspiring.
