Music video[edit]

The music video for "Gemini Feed" was directed by Philippa Price. It was released on Banks's Vevo channel on August 16, 2016.[4] The video starts with a close-up of Banks on a futuristic throne, her eyes are covered in jewels. She sits atop a neon lit throne with a golden snake's tongue dangling from her lips. This regal image is contrasted with two interlocking vignettes in which Banks' two sides, one dressed in black, while the other dressed in white, writhe against each other while wrapped up in ropes.[5]
