European brother/sister electro duo The Knife have a number of talented visual artists working with them. Andreas Nilsson has been designing the light and visual show for their rare live performances as well as music videos. This song is from a recent live DVD The Knife just released.
Pretty incredible, these guys are definitely one of my favorite bands at the moment.
Motomichi Nakamura has also been doing some cool things with them:
Both of these fellows have their own unique style, both in almost polar opposite directions. Nilsson sticks for towards "dirty" graphics mostly hand drawn, collage, or strangely warped and hued video footage while Nakamura's creates simple duo-tone vector graphics and equally as interesting

badass
I listened to a lot of The Knife on the drive out here to Athens, and since I've been here. For reasons I cannot explain their music sounds better in the south than in the rocky mountains..
Their live show visuals look great, if they come to Athens we are taking a field trip!
