This song used to make me cry every time I listened to it (It touched the depths of my Soul). Then, back in Feb., I had a profound experience. It was the No-Self experience. After the experience, everything changed. My life will never be the same. Even the song has no emotional effect any longer (although I still like it). If you’re interested in having this experience, go to:
Love that song. But this whole package was a bit too straight-forward for my taste. Each shot corresponds clearly to every line in the song... But I feel like words are already enough to tell me what the song tries to tell me, so instead of simply representing the words, I would use video footage to somehow enhance it in a creative way, by contrast, metaphor, etc. Just my thought.
This only applies you because you listened to the song too much. Sure it was big back when Donnie Darko came out but I've probably havent even heard this song since the trailer for the orginal Gears of War.
click my name. wtch my version of changes by tupac...its mre in ur face, dis is way 2 suttle n slightly repetetive....seems all from the us to duno if thats wt u was goin for. nice try n e wyz. 4 stars
Hi, i've just watched your video and I think it's possibly the first time I've sat up and thought about what is going on in the world. For me, that video is much more powerful than many of the advertisements that charities are using. Do you do any work to help this situation? Volunteering etc?? If so, i'd like to know more about how I could help. Thanks
Well at first i decided i wnt 2 b a video journalist but den realised, ppl wtch sumthing powerful and sad, den they go back to their everyday lives. Its pointless, very few like youself ask questions about what they can do. For me i've decied to do sum volunteeering abroad (im in the uk startiin uni next week). The only solution i can see is to make enoughmoney and goto places liek africa and build wells, houses and provide ppl with basic health care. Its either that or becoming an iconic legend
like martin luther king, malcom x. I cant see myself doin that and even tho becomin a doctor i could go abroad to help people, i think that more people are dying from jus simple things like lack of clean water and shelter. To answer your question, donate to charity monthly, or go abroad and help people out (get sponsered, join a charity that works abroad) or figure out your own game plan.
I want to save the whole world, its probly nt posible but dat doesnt mean u shudnt try.
Well, you may want to donate directly...if you reseach [really research!] these "charities"... I just try to make a difference...one soul at a time. Blessings.
Fricke did the cinematography on Koyaanisqatsi was co writer and editor - The idea of the qatsi series much attributed to Frickes original photography and concept that started it off. Dont take my word for it takes Frickes - Fricke writes about his work: "I feel that my work has evolved through Koyaanisqatsi, Chronos and Baraka. Both technically and philosophically I am ready to delve even deeper into my favorite theme: humanity's relationship to the eternal".
THIS IS A TRUE THING!!!PASTE THIS MESSAGE INTO 3 COMMENTS AND HIT ALT F1 AND YOUR CRUSSHES NAME WILL APPEAR!!!it will be a little scary at first but its cool!!!
I enjoyed your video which I felt emphasized important features of the song (as did the original video by TFF, tho the music was not as good.) Well done, hope to see more with as much or more depth.
great song, crappy mundane video with clips randomly thrown together that simply had literal ties with the lyrics. This was awful, I had to stop watching as your boring video was ruining the depth of the song

0:50 into this video, the young man with a look of anguish.
Where is that clipped from?
Faces like that are more troubling as the years go by....
Not as hard boiled and insensative as I was in my youth.

Just to be clear, Fricke didn't do any of the Qasti trilogy. He did Baraka, Chronos and Samsara, which comes out in '08 or '09.

I Love the song.
I love those three films.
I think you have also combined the footage very well, plus fitted it to the music.
But combined i think it's too dramatic, too sad. The song and those three film also arent't strictly pessimistic i believe.
