A music video from a Japanese band called Sour.

Eight lifetimes ago, when I studied computer science in college, our professors never tired of the topic of specificity in requirements. When you get requirements from a customer, we were told, they must be clear, comprehensive and unambiguous. If they are not, they must be sent back for revision. Or else.

This video, to me, perfectly illustrates the importance of providing clear requirements. For instance, if someone had told me simply to make a music video of my silhouette, featuring primarily what my hands can do, the end result would have been substantially different.
