I wanted something to add mood to my home and this DVD does just that. The visuals are very soothing. If you like kaleidoscopes, you'll like this. I have a Phillips Ambilight TV so the colors glow onto the wall. Sometimes I have the music on low but usually I turn the TV volume all the way down.

I'm not sure why this is ranked 4 stars, I bought and was instantly disappointed. Music, so-so, but's okay because I was mostly interested in the video, which looked like something I could have made (not impressive). In the end, I should have just purchased Ocean Origins (2002) on IMAX.... it's a way better mind trip and the video footage is superior.

this is basically two packages:
-lots of old cliche visuals done to generic hippytronica and whatever, forgettable
-new stunning generative visuals to deep exquisite audio, and chat about the project, super great, top marks
put together in a powerpoint-looking dvd menu
could seriously just lose all the old stuff, adds zero. more of the magic sheep stuff: and hooray for the author's transientness-of-competitive-things conceptualizing, but blah blah, just render these things every few weeks and make DVD compilations and I'll buy them.

The reason gave this 4 stars is that I'm a photographer who wants to create animations of my own and this disc was very useful in showing me what is possible and what I like or don't like. I found the 3 documentaries fascinating and well worth watching. The animations themselves tend to be a bit too repetitious for my taste, but it's an emerging artform. The potential is enormous.

Sold by all the five star reviews. I could not believe it started in black and in white normal TV square screen format. I can download better 'Kaleidoscope videos' for free, I wasted my time and money on something not worthy of my HD 65" Toshiba TV. You can have my 'Spotworks' for $1 plus p&p.
