Sigur Ros - 'Svefn-G-Englar' (amazing; down syndrome cast)
One of my favorite music videos. Very powerful.
(p.s. Sigur Ros puts on a great show, if you get a chance to see them. Quite an experience.)
One World
Can't upvote cause the guy uses Sigur Ros for his little commercial. Nothing is sacred. We are all succumbing to idealistic looking insurance commercials and the like. This clip reminds me of that. I'm with rembar on this one.
Anorexia Bulimia Campaign (Sweden)
Sigur Ros - Saeglopur
One of the most explosive songs ever, part of my 100 favorite songs of all time.
An Autistic Woman "Speaks" Her Language, Then Ours
oh, and I do agree it has some surface similarities to the 'hope-landic' of sigur ros (who i've seen perform), it sounds like the oft-caricatured aboriginal chants (sometimes with drums and movement) of native americans and countless other cultures whome we don't identify with modern culture.
An Autistic Woman "Speaks" Her Language, Then Ours
This is a fairly long video (8:35), and the opening 5 minutes in her language (which, as someone on YouTube says, sounds like Sigur Ros) may fascinate you or weird you out, but hang on until 5:20 when she starts her translation. Here's an excerpt:
"My language is not about designing words or even visual symbols for people to interpret. It is about being in a constant conversation with every aspect of my environment, reacting physically to all parts of my surroundings. ... Far from being purposeless, the way that I move is an ongoing response to what is going around me. Ironically, the way that I move when responding to everything around me is described as being in a world of my own. Whereas if I interact with a much more limited set of responses and only react to a much more limited part of my surroundings, people claim that I am opening up to true interaction with the world."
And I know there has been some debate about posting videos about people who are different here. silentmiaow (aka ballastexistenz) produced this video herself, and states clearly what her motivation is:
"The first part is in my "native language," and then the second part provides a translation, or at least an explanation. This is not a look-at-the-autie gawking freakshow as much as it is a statement about what gets considered thought, intelligence, personhood, language, and communication, and what does not."

Sigur Ros - Hoppipolla
Sigur Ros are mental. Well they do come from Iceland. So I guess that explains it.
