How it's made (Part 2): We went out into this very weird forest outside Milan, Italy, 5 in the morning to catch the morning fog. Then we just started filming, nothing planned except which song to play. So most of this is merely experimenting with angles and editing. People have asked me how I made the background, and I have to explain that it's a real forest :) The part were the "camera" follows the bow is made with photos and After Effects. The last part was filmed at a concert in Italy. The whole video (Part 1 and 2) took about 5 months to complete.)

first time in my life that I felt like smoking.

[Djentard]

I am neither an intellectual (compared to some people out there) or really "well-learned in the musical arts" but i still enjoy this and alot of different avant-garde music. If i ever started making music however, this is probably what i would strive to make; maybe not exactly like this, but the same concept in another form perhaps.
