Klaus Nomi is so wonderfully weird

It's become pretty typical for me and my friends to try to one-up each other with fun videos.
In response to this piece of ridiculousness (highlights *spoiler alert*: when she busts a move with the street dancers on the bridge, the creeper staring at her performance, turning into an animation in a twist ending), I was graced with an introduction to Klaus Nomi.

He's brilliantly odd both alone and in collaborative performance pieces with David Bowie.








Humble East Village beginnings..


with Bowie..



I always appreciate a challenge, so if you got sumthin wickedly creative in your back pocket, email it to newyorklook@gmail.com. I'm throwing down the gauntlet.
