Bunnyman:
I would argue that the music video is an abused art. While, on one hand, we have the ever-so-questionable content of MTV, we also see works like Gantz Graf, where the audio and visuals are perfectly calibrated for maximum effect. While the video has always been a promotional tool, one can look at the works of such artists as Chris Cunningham and realize that the medium has artistic merit. So, without further ado...

Did videos for many different artists. Their wry sense of humor and pastiche of 3D Graphics with media collage is both compelling and original.

Best music video ever made:
"Windowlicker" by Aphex Twin, directed by Chris Cunningham.
Best video of 2005 so far:
Three 6 Mafia "Stay Fly" (You'd think "Windowlicker" would contradict that, but oddly, no)
(runner-up: "16 Military Wives" by the Decemberists)
Video I'm currently digging:
"Ibi Dreams of Pavement (A Better Day)" by Broken Social Scene
Last video that made me love a song:
"Sugar, We're Going Down" by Fall Out Boy
(Plenty of music video love from me.)
rive gauche:
This is a probably a pretty typical answer, but the video for Glosoli by Sigur Ros is incredible.
Mikintosh:
Ha, I am copying lastclearchance as it's too early to be original.

I'm clearly not very indie. I'm working on it.
ASturge:
Chris CUnningham did the Squarepushed video with the Children's Mental Hospital right?
