I totally forgot about this. I always enjoyed it when I was a kid. Never knew Philip Glass composed the music.

thank you so much for this. seriously it means so much. i remember this as a kid - most likely one of the reasons why i'm drawn to sacred geometry. i just happened upon this to which watch shape vids with my 4 year old who saw this and said 'oh my god'... ! thanks again from a very happy mum.

The creepy high pitched chanting in minor key combined with the weird circles and not knowing what the hell this WAS as tiny tots freaked a bunch of us, including myself, out. Now I can enjoy it as what it IS - avante garde art made by hippy-ish animal lover P. Glass - but at 2 years old, how could I have known that?
