  • The colours in this video are amazing. Great job!

  • @xxmarka regardless of what others said, I think the video is fine :)

  • Your video is like Blair Witch Project with Dripping Paint and some Numbers.

  • I love and i hate this music. When im hearing it i remind how many time i wasting

  • very, very, veeery good. wow that was just amazing... the video and the music is a whole experience! it's so well done, thank you.

  • This is seriously. The most amazing video I've ever seen. It's absolutely beautiful to me, maybe not to others, but to me. And I think that's what art is. Honestly I was speachless for a bit while I tried to think of words to describe this video. And the music is incredible with the video. The video reminds me of a nice, euphoric, lush mushroom trip with some cannabis. Everything is so warm and inviting and wonderful. Truly great. Good job man. Well done.

  • nice video. don't worry about the people crying over the paint being toxic, etc. lol, give me a break. this is a little bit of art that was well worth it imo and doesn't even begin to compare to the amount of damage done on any hour of any day by lots of companies and corporations. haha

  • Running to thee store.

  • library ceiling in the pagemaster

  • Cool vid.

  • i hope the paint was not toxic

  • I'm Going to College Soon.

  • This song is like leaving home for college or university....

    Mate...YOU are brilliant..!!

    Best wishes from Germany !

  • Brilliant. Great work. Sound seems a bit compressed, though I think that's just youtube. Video is amazing

  • So sicckkkkkkkkkkkk omg ur super talented its a shame some people can't see the true art in this its very good have a good time at college

  • @p2o6 I've been looking all over for that video too. I thought it was amazing. Let me know if you find it

  • i herd u liek paintin trees

  • what the FUCK were you thinking when you wanked up this pseudo-artistic degression to retardation

  • 4 people saw dislike and thought it meant "Dis I like" xD

  • i just know a couple of tracks that are soooo epic!

    four tet - hands

    autchre-444

    aphex - on

    apparat - fractales

    i need more! do you know any???

  • Good job!

  • @Watermellin Exactly how i felt when i was getting ready to leave.

  • This video was Awesome. Really kinda trippy. But i am Blitzed tho.....hmmmm

  • this guy clearly has some talent and has paid attention to matching the music to the visuals. it really seems to fit, esp at 3:23. the paint in the woods is an almost disturbing contrast- makes you want to clean it up, makes you think of your hands sticky with paint. can see how both are about childhood. thanks for uploading.

  • As the caption also says in BoC's the Childrens Prison "I guess I'm growing up.." awesome video and legendary tune

  • i'm addicted to this song.

  • @djpajop me too. Can't stop listening to it. What have they done to me? :)

  • i LIKED THE VISUALS. tHEY COMPLIMENTED THE TRIPPY MUSIC PERFECTLY.

  • HAVE YOU BEEN BACK TO REALITY since then? i hope not. It's rather a gloomy place. 

  • nice ~.~

  • im now at home ....i came from a gabber party but this is so tight. so relaxed....that i spliff right now some weed and lets start the next day...with this music it can only be a good day. so we will see what comes...

  • by the way, what's the full paint writing say? i can't see it very well...

  • "It's time to embrace reality" that's fun to interpret!

  • Idk why but this video made me feel good. Good job.

  • The video has some nice shots, sure, but those writings are some pretentious and gratuitous stuff. The music has nothing to do with that.

  • @neodkl a bit vague maybe, but pretentious? It's just how the song inspired me at the time. I think we can all agree that a lot of the Boards' music is inspired by and deals with themes of childhood. The multicolored paint relates to childhood. The painted sentence relates to childhood. I never said it was a masterpiece...it was just something that I enjoyed making and that I feel was a pretty genuine expression of what I was feeling at the time.

  • @xxmarka

    No, it isn't pretentious. I thought it was wonderful.

    If it makes you feel, it is art.

  • @xxmarka I perfectly agree with you, and on top of all the stuff you wrote, it's a music clip. And music clips have often nothing to do with the music, they are often an attempt to translate the feeling carried by the music and i think it's, then, rather subjective. It's been worked, i can watch that and that's good for me, because it sticks to the music and i think most people would agree with me. It's not about meaning but with propensity to stick with the rhythm.

  • @neodkl 2deep4u

  • @neodkl I agree with you about the pretentiousness. This was clearly written by a pre-freshman teen thinking that we all care he was going to college or something lol, the song is lovely though

  • @piccard1976 Who is this "we all" and why do you think your are the representative?

  • @mickblock The party of the people who have lives on the net . See our into video at watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0

  • @neodkl why are nubs always saying pretentious

  • next time I die, I want this to be played at my funeral

  • @borlo Next time? haha

  • Boards of canada can be crazy...on acid.

  • Helping me resist thanks BoC

  • Undefined, yet so refined.

  • excelant trip

  • we see you were out in the woods doing acid before you left for college...

  • this video screams my first film studies assignment hand in

  • I hope you cleaned up that mess you made

  • Exactly what I thought when I saw this. I like their music but I don't like paint in the woods.

  • @brie3102

    I hope, at least, that it was non-toxic paint because we both know that that kid didn't clean that up.

  • @brie3102

    I don't think he made that mess, from the looks of it he just got footage of this from all over the internet.

  • awesome conception :)

  • listening to this i feel like i should hear ben gibbard start singing. (photo album ben not gay narrow stairs ben..)

  • truly amazing.

  • That was brilliant, thanks for the trip

  • you contaminate nature with your painting

  • I hope they used natural colors

  • I like it. Reminds me of the merry pranksters.

  • woooooooooooooow this music is great

  • adore the stationary shots, very sweet, in a sugary way :). im ambivalent about the tracking shots however. thanks for making, thanks for posting

  • I can't express how cool this is, being limited to the vocabulary that we use. I'd have to open up my brain and show you what is happening inside to convey my true thoughts of this video.

    That's too deep, though. I suppose that I could just rate 5 stars. Thank you, sir. :D

  • @PattyMMelt My exact thoughts. We need to create a new language or at the very least new words to describe how I or we feel when we here these songs. Often nature is conveyed side by side with BoC but it seems more human and real to me. They take you back to innocent times while also telling you to keep yout eyes open in the future. Love whats around you & don't waste time.

  • Great Work! Reminds me on Nathan Fake - long sunny...

    Improve the quality of your cam :P

  • magnificent

  • This is my favorite song... It is amazing how music can put you in a totally different mind state and everything dissapears... putting you in a trance-like state... You did such an amazing job with the video... I love it... Its going on my iPod :D

  • @Zombiesami Thanks a lot, I am really flattered. Very cool that someone will be keeping a piece of my work with them so they can see it whenever they want. =]

  • The only thing I would have changed is the camera -- it needs some stabilization. If your camera has a tripod then you can just hold the tripod in the very middle to stabilize it.

  • I used a tripod in a couple of the shots showing text as well as the paint drizzling shots, but I see what you mean...I kind of had to work within the motif of "crappy homemade video" though since that was what it was lol

  • Oh, I wasn't aware thats what you were going for. It threw me off when watching it -- probably just my slight perfectionist coming though.

  • thats an amazing video to watch a few weeks before you go to college, amazingly edited, it brings a harsh reality that i won't see half my friends again, but the setting and style of the video reminds me of my early childhood watching beck and aphex twin videos etc. thus sort of symbolizing starting over again.

  • hey man were did you film all that beautiful landscape

  • it looks like any other Wood

  • haha I know, I feel the same way about it just being woods. It's in Georgia, though. I guess I'm just used to it.

  • God,I love Boards Of Canada. I like the music video too, very abstract. It's nice to add even more beauty and color to a beautiful landscape.

  • Beautiful! Where was this filmed?

  • Thanks! It was just on some walkway in a forest near my house in Georgia.

  • leaving for college was weird. :(

  • sfgdhfgt
