Oneohtrix Point Never – D.I.S. By Elliott Elder & George Muncey - Uncanny

Electronic experimental producer Oneohtrix Point Never didn’t get a music video so much as a system, called D.I.S. Director duo Uncanny, Elliott Elder and George Muncey, built a bespoke piece of software that slowly unravels on screen - a pixelated world thinking itself into collapse, then regrowth. Drawing from fragments of designer Julien Gobled’s archive, the visuals feel misremembered and unstable: painterly textures rendered as data, landscapes behaving like code, colour operating as matter. Framed as a fictional environmental forecasting programme, the video unfolds as a canonical screen recording - a machine designed to predict disaster that gradually abandons logic, certainty, and control. Fire spreads through red pixels, water seeps in blue, moss overtakes ruin. What begins as analysis slips into belief, then surrender. In Uncanny’s hands, software becomes narrative, degradation becomes philosophy, and the archive turns alive. It’s not just about destruction - it’s about what grows back once the system breaks.
