  • ...n-i-c-e

  • I thought his eyes were closed, but then he kept blinking..

  • mommy, im scared....

  • There's clearly a difference between being artistic and needing special attention by a psychiatrist.

  • Is this work yours or from Bill Viola?

  • Wow amazing!

  • Fascinating. Found this through thr BRAIN on eyeearbrain.webs.com

  • The guy is kinda 'Creepy' 

  • The weird part of you tube really snuck up on me this time...

  • this would be much cooler if it were rotated 90 degrees or even 180...

  • AWESOME.

  • Voldemort it's alive !! <3

  • Amazing, thank you.

  • okay...all of you who put a negative comment on this video you obviously DID NOT read the info. It is about God creating Adam and the destruction of the world. Those who hate art are not open to accept it. You are so close minded that you are not letting anything different in you mind, maybe even something beautiful. so when you get on youtube leave your negative comments to yourself because if you know nothing of art dont say anything at all.

  • Who needs sleep anyways?

  • dis dude has some fucking serious problems.

  • i can't understand it... its normal ?!

  • That was awful. I feel heavily patronised.

  • Always good to be reminded every so often that most 'art' is utter shit. Pretending to use symbolism doesn't relieve you of the responsibility of expressing it. You have shots of a white face, an atomic explosion (yeah, that's not easy, open-ended symbolism), the face coming out of a white background, and some red food coloring. Then you mashed them together with no purpose in mind, except to appear high-brow and sophisticated. Pretentious nonsense.

  • @ScienceWinsEveryTime You are a twat. clearly.

  • @GLaPepite I don't think you know what that word means. Ask your homeroom teacher she will explain it to you

  • @GLaPepite Thanks, that was constructive and illuminating.

  • this is some aphex twin sounding bullshit lol

  • Yep that's enough internet for me today.

  • Does this mean that i am going to die in Seven days?

  • Very interesting. Really liked the video. It's nice to see a surreal video project that doesn't have to do with sleep. I understand that surrealism has to do with a dream-like sequence, but the use of sleep has been way overdone. I'm trying to avoid the use of sleep to produce a surrealistic envision. I saw recent surreal video projects from a previous class, and it vexed me that they all used a sleep sequence. I guess I have a problem with things that are too common in use.

  • Did my brain just melt?

  • This is actually the last 3 minutes cut from "2001: A Space Odyssey" because Kubrick thought it was too obvious -- and it made him feel sleepy.

  • Scares the hell out of me......

  • SO THIS IS ART?!

  • If this is Art then i am ready to wear my Iron's man suit, fly all the way around the world, have some fun, call superman in Krypton planet to say to him wtf i just saw and come back to my place... People, it doesn't have to be weird something to call it art, it has to be beautiful to our senses.. and this is clearly NOT

  • @skatopsixos1 your "Iron's Man" suit? English as a second language perhaps? By the way, what the hell are you talking about?

  • @Tuscapalooza He is talking about his journey being an iron man. Cool story bro.

  • @Tuscapalooza Sorry for the delay. Maybe your taste as the trash in my kitchen?? perhaps???

  • @skatopsixos1 So I wish you fun at being in your Iron man suit, flying, being buddies with superman and coming back. Enjoy the rest of your life

  • am i going to die in 7 days now?

  • very cool

  • wonderfull from nordic butoh surely

  • This is normal....perfectly normal.......AHHHH WTF

  • I am peeved that you tube has crap comments that make it to the front. People really don't have a general understanding for art. This is by far a great piece of videographic work. Reminiscent of THX-1138, yet incredibly diluted with audio patterns.

  • @09Health At least a few people can understand the work of art in this. It may be odd to many with simple minds, but this truly is great. One can gather so many definitions of what is going on here in several variations, and they way they do it is utterly splendid. It is much better than placing a yellow circle on a paper and putting it into a museum and calling THAT art. This is so much better.

  • @09Health It's art sure but you can't take away people's right to call it weird. After all interpretation is up to the viewer. Beautiful piece though.

  • this has bad acid trip written all over it

  • wonderful piece. glad i found it - love the audio work

  • This work is beautiful but a bit disturbing. I'm not sure I like the music/noise that was paired with it, as I imagine the moment of the creation of man to be a beautiful one. Also, the red color coming down to take over the man was very symbolic of the Fall, when sin entered the hearts of human kind. Well done.

  • That was uber creepy, the sound was more unnerving than anything.

  • Brilliant, very compelling. Though from my first watch without looking at what it was about I took from it the death of art/ an artist. Nevertheless it's very good.

  • i was like holy crap, is he gonna pop out..O_O

  • I think I just re-entered my mother's womb...

  • love it!

  • munky :D

  • trippy...i like it!

  • these comments are so funny

  • this is so beautiful.

    

  • hahaha what is that god damn thing?

  • i guess u gotta b high to remotely give a damn about whatever the hell he was doing.#PRETTYCOOL

  • God, I love performance art. I love that you have to really concentrate and think about it to figure out the message that the artist is trying to convey. It's so incredibly interesting.

  • @TheAngelSpeaks15 you cant be serious

  • @EconGuy89 Actually, I am.

  • @TheAngelSpeaks15 its not a performance , in fact its video art... no shame in calling it.

  • @PIENoondzki Whatever it is, it rocks.

  • Ascético dramatismo.

    Imágen de la música y música de la imagen.

  • i hate artists, leave thinking to scientists you dooshbags

  • @stevierayvaughan180

    Leave spelling to intellectuals, DOUCHEbag.

  • artistic.

  • This video is part of the series: How to expand footage: Working with 20 or less seconds.

  • pretty shit really.

  • @TheBolaroja i think it is a Jymdavis creation (if i understood the description), not Fluxus ^^.

  • this is fluxus?

  • That was brilliant. Very challenging to the mind. Who ever did this, well done.

  • Did that have an ending? Ooh...Arty!!!

  • WHAT THE WATCH DID I JUST FUCK?

  • @gs17graffiti I don't think I wanna know at this point...

  • Reminded me a litle of Rubber Johnny without the excellent music of Aphex Twin (James Burke) and the video by Chris Cunningham.

  • es un idiota

  • This should not be tagged for Bill Viola. :-|

  • wow.

  • ????

    WTF IS THIS SHIT NIGGAZ?

  • wtf is this...these fuckers do fucked up shit and make money.....

  • wtf is this

    

  • What. the. heck. man.

  • "Experimental" is always inspirational. It's a mind sharing.

    White, Black, Red --- always the stunning triad.

  • hey its an intriguing video but id like to know if its based on a set of ideas and explanations...

  • Awesome video. I love the soundscapes and the movements of this white face. It looks like a soul coming out from this 'not yet human figure'. One thing I don't get is the yellow color at the bottom of the screen, 2: 32.

  • this is racist

  • As a frequent tripper, I can say that this made me feel fucking horrible.

  • That looks like a failed attempt to make a music video for Tool.

  • Gay.

  • very well done. the perfect length and I love how the video ties in creation and destruction.

  • performance art is more sacred than this.

  • @banjoby1232003yahoo you are even more pretentious than this video, eh? maybe you could just enjoy something unique and different

  • @GLaPepite i respect your judgment and emotionally wrought thinking, ALLOW your self to understand life not ARTIFICE.

  • nah it was fucking fucked

  • That was pretty awesome to watch.

  • this is amazing, you actually made me tremble a bit haha, loved it can i ask what programme you used to edit the clips together <3

  • How did you go about with the sound? I'm doing a group practical dissertation and we have to make our own sounds before we can create our installation

  • what is this work about?

  • ethereal, intriguing, poetic..... well done

  • Nice Video .reminiscence of David Lynch and other surrealists .I think I watched one of yours, It had to do w / fire ;but I could not find it back . Doy you have the link?

  • Comment removed

  • Is this from the new Lawnmower Man remake?

  • this is creepy good shit!

  • me no likey , me scared of milk man.

  • @spankbandit LooooooooooooooooooL

  • its an excelent piece of art

  • OMG, we had to watch sumthing on youtube in class today and came across this.

    i so thought sumthing was gonna jump out at ya @ 1:40ish! i was the only one in class with my hands over my face! XDDDDD

    LOOL

  • I feel like I was just brain-washed or something

  • @giannasquirrel I just thought this was a bad episode of "Red Dwarf" you know that british space comedy.

  • What a wicked yet strange, strange image. The soundtrack made me feel breathless.

  • umm creepy ._.

  • All this reminds me of is a bad trip to the hospital.

  • I think phallic imagery is VERY artistic and a great MEANINGFUL statement. Especially when it turns into boobs and ESPECIALLY when it's preceded by one minute of a SPOOOOOOOOKKKKYYYY white face surfacing from bath water over and over again.

  • lol

  • ive been these places

  • white state

  • Very nice piece, influenced by artist of older generation fused thorough your own sensibility. As a video installation probably works in quite good way.

  • i see struggle/mortality in this piece

  • Powerful image. Visual and audio work really well together.

  • capolavoro!!

  • WTF DID I JUST WATCH?

  • @Noobtron3000

    "art"

    also you should be receiving a call that says you have 7 days to live

  • @Noobtron3000 Art!!!

  • @Noobtron3000 ART

  • @Noobtron3000 brilliance

  • @Noobtron3000 something awesome

  • music of minimalist compsers cannot be seen...

  • Is this from the New Hellraiser movie? "Pin Head The Early Years"

  • Is this from the new Lawn Mower man movie?

  • awesome

  • u need a security place....

  • u need a security place....

  • i don't know but the piece make's me think about life and death. not so sure but great job. my suggestion to haters is to think deeper to any art form in order for you to appreciate certain pieces. cheers

  • this was retarded. its not art, just plane dumb .

  • And then people call me sick. This comment board is a nest of sociopaths. People go get some treatment quick.

  • It is strong anf very impressing. Something of a creation of being.

  • Wow. Brilliant!

    The editing in this is amazing. The combination of stark colouration and slowed time against the repeating bleep of the soundtrack, it creates a beautiful yet unsettling atmosphere. I loved the seeping red morphing into a heart as well, very clever.

    I hope my vids are of this quality one day!

  • I bet they used audacity to make the soundtrack

  • I love this.

  • ***** :)

  • Comment removed

  • That was a little freak lol

  • who is the director?

    wonderful job!

  • Seems like the art the movie "The Cell" (2000) had, a film starring Jeniffer Lopez and some deranged serial killer, Vincent D'Onfrio. The effect is similar. That is, the art of this White Space. Thanks for posting this up. :D.

  • Comment removed

  • no just bullshit.

    Please explain what is so genious in this?

  • semi interesting concept, better editing and sound design.

  • I don't think that this is weird. However, I have seen similar works. It is video art. Those that expect a cinematic movie...please go to the next door.

  • Wonderful work!!!!

  • I liked it. Not all search the same things in art. I wouldn't even try to define "what's art and what's not". That could be considered awkward and a little weird, I must say.

  • ...

  • this is bullshit

  • this video is absurdly uninteresting and has no point. just because something is awkward and a little weird does not make it art or worth watching or talking about.

  • you're so right.

  • you´re so dammn right

  • Fantastic video, really interesting and perceptive.

    Thanks for sharing.

  • This is cool, but it's as weird as shit.

  • ssssssssszzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz che impressione questo video

  • BODACIOUS! ;d

  • Pointless!!

  • Bodacious! *****

    +Favorite

  • Well at first i was very unimpressed but by the end i can at least take something away from it. It is a strange process how life formed from regular matter, and in turn humankind.

  • @eggory nah it was just fucking trippy

  • Lame~

  • Avant-Garde! amazing work!

  • Sin duda...un gran trabajo de una gran plasticidad y sugestion.Enhorabuena.

    Saludos desde España!.

  • genius!

  • Seems like another Billy Corgan's video.

  • Hey, you took the words out of my mouth, lol.
