But what can you really do about it? Not one really is paranoid enough to plaster their huge logo/name over every photograph they create and publish, lest it end up credit-less on some forum, get snagged up by someone else, boomerang back via MTV and pull you into metaphysical lawsuit on idea copyrighting.

I read some criticism of this that he (because presumeably he makes the final say) is trying to gain "street cred" by doing this without participating in the culture (i.e. actually creating). But then he's making music not visual art. No one is saying "hey, that Beck, he's a great filmmaker" like they do with Julian "Helicopter shot" Schnabel. AMong other examples of Beck video appropriation are: using ascii animation, lo-fi After Effects animation (also used in TIm and Eric Awseome Show on Adult Swim and a bunch of folks in Portland, apparently) But this is old hat - look at MTV when it started - the art came from somewhere.
