Music: 'The shapeless stream of unplaceable colour' by Cousin Silas. (This track is named after a line from the short story "The Colour Out of Space", by H. P. Lovecraft).

"... nothing else there but sky and, occasionally, the huge flocks of birds that gather waving and turning in the air like a single fabric of awareness."
John Burnside, 'The Devil’s Footprints'.

Mathematician Steven Strogatz shows how flocks of creatures (like birds, fireflies and fish) manage to synchronize and act as a unit -- when no one's giving orders. The powerful tendency extends into the realm of objects, too.

    Wow, that was, weird. What were the orbs of light meant to be?
  • Jesús Olmo plus 1 year ago
    Those orbs of light mean whatever you want them to mean... (ufos, flying souls, slow asteroids, drops of heavenly glowing rain, whatever)
  • David Suggitt plus 8 months ago

    Was there a light/transparent image overlayed on the clouds near the end, or am I just reading too much into it? sneaking some pareidolia in on us?

    When they rip this video of you they can't make it there own.
    Even when I see a bunch of pigeons in the air I see your avatar.
    Nevertheless be aware for people who don't have respect.
    Thank you for warning.

    Great video, I showed this to my Digital Media: Video and Sound class as an example of great pairings. Keep on making!
  • Jesús Olmo plus 4 months ago
    thank you very much Colby! but what do you mean by 'pairings'? (sorry for my ignorance)
  • Colby Jennings 4 months ago
    No apology needed! Sometimes a great deal of effort goes into making sure that effort is noticed. In this video, any time spent capturing and creating falls into the background because of the seamless and effortless relationship of the audio and video. The two elements are presented harmoniously and command attention because of this!
