To save anyone the trouble of re-posting the following trivia from Wikipedia in the comments..I’ve done it here.
‘Devo used a Video Music screen as a background in the video for “The Day My Baby Gave Me A Surprise”. It appears again, connected to a vocoder, in the music video for “Beautiful World”. Daft Punk also used a screen in their video “Robot Rock”. The diamond pattern visuals from Video Music can also be seen in several scenes from the 1979 movie Over the Edge where the mute character Johnny watches the visuals in his bedroom. The same pattern also appeared in an episode of The X-Files (Season 1 Episode 7, “Ghost in the Machine”) as part of a video surveillance system.’
