Whoa, Blade Runner smokes a doobie and watches Koyaanisqatsi; that's how this makes me feel. Maybe I should rethink LA.

watch.

Here's a more informative description, from Shape & Colour:

Created by Brian Levi Bowman (a CD at the legendary Digital Kitchen NY. Amongst Digital Kitchen's legendary-ness is the best credit sequence to any TV show in the history of TV-- the mesmerizing opening to "Six Feet Under") and cinematographer Rod Lamborn; they eloquently describe the beautiful collision of physics and poetry that was the catalyst idea for their film:

"The philosophy of materialism holds that the only things that can be truly proven to exist is matter. Fundamentally, material composes all things and all phenomena are the result of material interactions; therefore, matter is the only substance and can neither be created or destroyed. Hence, we are all made of only what came before us yet discretely conceived through form; we are all made of earth and sky and stars."

I'm not crazy about all the bath scenes; they may ring slightly cheesy, I think, but the time lapse footage is stunning, and there are some amazing stills.

That magical thing in photo is translating over to film...
