These are videos with "attitude" and true video decorations! Some people are still not sure what ambient video is. Video Decoration is the best way to describe it. Video to enhance your environment. Sometimes called Video Wallpaper. Ambient videos came to be used throughout the 80's and 90's as a sort of relaxing sleeping pill. However, originally introduced in the 70's as a way to have a fishtank or fireplace if you live alone in an apartment and needed something to keep you company.
No matter how you slice it these videos veer off course from the normal Ambient video. In the case of these videos, they distort your environment. More accurately they infuse your environment. You decorate with lights, sculptures, posters. Why not with video?! It's like the black light poster of the 21st century. Rock on!
