P. Glass is the only composer who has broken through the conventional world of classical counterpoint composition. He ventured into the past and determined its viability, and then moved into a more modal personal world of tone. He is now, and will always be an outlier. As a player, I lean on him as a provider of my quest and venture. His pieces are brilliant.
I also did in Columbus, Ohio in the late 80's. As my friend and I were walking down the alley to our car, here comes Philip by himself, maybe trying to avoid people, but I had to do the fanboy, "your music is life-changing" stuff. It's one of the most influential experiences in film and aesthetics in my life.
Maybe the best videofilm ever created on the planet. This music by Mr. Glass is insane. Purely insane and incomparably beautiful, shocking, scary, magic, mystic...
No maybe about it. Nature will maybe still play this when lt's finally got rid of us and laugh as considers us thinking we were powerful enough to destroy the planet!!!
the francis ford coppola producer influence really shines through here - if I'm not mistaken a lot of that explosion montage footage looks like it could have been from apocalypse now
FFC had absolutely no influence in the movie whatsover. In fact, he only watched the movie post production and loved it so much that he swapped to be credited in the movie for promoting it through his producer company. The only piece he added was the last scene with the images from the Utah caves.
1:04 - was this when the last of United's 747 fleet went to storage -- later scrapped? Wiki states that the last five United 747 aircraft flew in 1977.
Amazing. Sobering. 40 years ago and still we haven't woken up.
@@user-ol5bj4dm2v How does your comment connect with Phillip Glass and Koyaanisqatsi ? Are you selling something ?
Progress is a one way road, my friend

I got to see him preform him music live to the movie at UCLA years ago. It was amazing!

I was there with my brother Erick. Outstanding performance. Pulverizing!
Yes indeed. 40 years ago and we haven’t understood.
This absolutely still works.

7:33 Wow, they used a retrorocket with a parachute for the cargo drop!
The woman was the first vessel
