The original purpose of Oulu Music Video Festival was to drag the art of the music video from its captivity on the small TVs in our homes, to cinemas and other bigger screens. We now live in a time when music videos have escaped television but ended up on even smaller screens on our mobile devices. So it is time for the 30-year-old festival to warmly remember (no matter how much we try to forget) the golden age of music video focused TV channels with a serving of the sounds and visions most ingrained in our memories and carved in our spines, including everything from Queen to Destiny’s Child.
