It was intended to be part of a concert video sold by NIN.[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=40TApsMUfcM#t=8m] That never happened, but a high-generation copy of the video leaked out, and Pureis available in bootleg trading circles.

''Coming soonThis setup for this tour was minimal, with basic lighting and fog machines. A lighting truss was set up at the front of the stage, from which was hung strands of recording tape (recalling the [[Nine Inch Nails music videos|music video]] for "[[Head Like A Hole (song)|Head Like A Hole]]") and three large ropes that band members could climb and swing from during the set.''
