Dante's Inferno: Imagery and Music

I put this together for an English project closing out the unit "We are going to Hell," the aim of which is to represent Dante's inferno through imagery and music, preferably modern. Here is how much I had completed for turning in; A Dark Wood and The Descent (Cantos 1+2).

I intend to finish it for the whole epic, due to personal interest and, well, making this was good fun.

The song is Megalomania by Muse from the album Origin of Symmetry

Hey, I'm also doing an english project on the Inferno and it's influence on modern music. Would you mind telling me what song you used for this?

The Divine Comedy is one of the most beautiful and haunting poems ever written. The Inferno has a hallucinatory power, and to think that this entire cosmology of the afterlife came from the imagination of one man, remains staggering almost 800 years later

This has nothing to do with Dante's Inferno whatsoever..

Oo, nice vid. You did a really good job.

Oh, thank you. When I click on (more) the description goes blank on my computer for some reason. But thank you very much. It's a very cool video. I especially like the shots near the end, the forest ones. Very nice editing.
