Music videos continue to provide an inviting market for adventurous video artists, which Resfest has recognized through its long-running emphasis on music clips. Videos That Rock (Fri 10/20, 9 PM) includes clips for John Cale, Sufjan Stevens, Nada Surf, OK Go, and Death Cab for Cutie, while Cinema Electronica (Sat 10/21, 7 PM) highlights dance music acts like Basement Jaxx, Massive Attack, and Gnarls Barkley. The festival concludes with two retrospective programs: Best of Resfest Music Videos (Sun 10/22, 5:30 PM) and a collection of music videos for video-art stalwarts Radiohead (Sun 10/22, 7:30 PM).
