Red Hot Chili Peppers - "Can't Stop"

"This artist named Erwin Wurm inspired the video; he did these art pieces called, 'One Minute Sculptures.' There were people posing in these awkward positions with everyday objects like buckets or pots on their heads or inside trash cans. They would just hold these poses against very blank rather uninteresting backdrops, so it was inspired by his work. The band would assume all these positions and all these weird scenarios with all kinds of different things. Like one was Flea playing his bass with the giant purple dinosaur mask on. There was one with yellow plastic buckets on feet and arms and head, so it just became these very sort of surreal, abstract things, which threw the Chili Peppers into that environment that they had a lot of fun with. So there was that, and all the vignettes, and there was the band performance. It had the same kind of vibe as far as the space went: on a stage that the art director built, the interesting glass and metal and florescent tube stage floor in rectangle pieces that all moved around and then the band just got up on that with the same top light look. With the exception of two setups, we basically used the same florescent source above everything."
