I made them into a background for my phone (LG Rumor). All I did was load the video in VLC media player, and then when it got to the running part I slowed it down to where I could play it 1 frame at a time, snapshot, next frame, snapshot, etc etc. It's only about 13 frames, not too hard. :)
@shadowdollcat ...yeah, it makes you think why the hell did peter gabriel get all the plaudits for copying mr. byrne's genius! grrrr...twenty seven years later and that STILL pisses me off! :-)
"the most artistically made music video I have ever" apparently, when it first came out the new york gallery of modern art had it on display, playing continuously as part of an exhibition
I don't think this video is weird... i think it's maddeningly symbolic.
A guy mindlessly running after a shopping cart which is eluding him? A scene or a beautifuly crafted rotating pillar, right after a scene with a rotating barbie like perfect girl in a beautiful dress? I think this video is quite easy to decipher.

I want the part of Byrne to be my new avatar on a forum. An idea how to extract it as a .gif?

You might be able to piece a bunch of screen captures together. I don't know apart from that, though, sorry.

It also was the song playing over the end credits of Bill Maher's "Religulous." A perfect fit, if you ask me.
