- I cut all the Bowie bits out of the Michael Apted DVD and put them all together. I hope you'll excuse my poor editing, I still suck at that. I left the end-credits on, thought it was only fair : ) Please enjoy! : ))
this man was and still is unparalleled in his approach towards art and life. he was such a monument of humanity. a pioneer of creativity, a sacred vessel that kept on giving and giving until he could not physically give any longer. i am eternally grateful for his spirit. he moved me and still does to this day. i hold his words safe, i keep them in my heart. authenticity is what this world needs and what it has lost since he died.
And he dared against all and against his time and all the time tides- until becoming pure art- from the artist he was, and still is.
At Age 50, bowie was still more creative than most young artists
He's art is fascinating...it has a constant theme running through it...

Carman is there some reason why you think young people would be more creative? In my experience they’re all being rebelliously different in exactly the same way.
Well you have more to pull inspiration from as you age. That’s the way you should try and develop, use your experiences to grow as an artist. Most people these days aren’t really artists or at least they aren’t free enough to be one. A lot of artists seem to be in bad contracts and probably don’t have enough creative control, and the ones that seem to be, aren’t really original. They’re interested in pushing an image forward instead of any substance.
@@visionary9385 originality is overrated. I have no musical talent at all and I can sit down at the piano and just bang keys. It’ll be totally original I guarantee it. 😂😂😂😂
I have loved Bowie's music for decades, and not until his death did I investigate the divine MAN behind the music...and the Force that manifested the music, was a pricelessly compelling, Artist to the core
Xia Zhong me too I’m absolutely hooked on finding new footage and information about him
Zhong and the genius of the man.....love your points
Beautifully said. Agreed!
Bowie never got boring, he was always worth checking out what he was up to
Another favourite period of Bowie of mine. The "Outside" album with Eno.
Those who are from art shall always be art - David Jones
One of the most kindest, beautifully mannered funny, amazing man. His music is art, he is art. His intellect and collection of experiences are priceless. Just like Jareth at the end of Labrynth he has flown into an amazing cosmos...
David Bowie was a genius, and here his Dada inspired songwriting is reminiscent of the later work of Scott Walker.
A genius. He stunned me once more- I’ve been loving him for decades and only now I learn that he developed a phrase scrambler program so that he could get new phrases from broken ones.
That is fascinating! I heard that he used to tear apart his journals and piece together random sentences/words for inspiration.
Nice to see a person even after his death how he was living his dreams without interference from the internet, be yourself? live your own life
Yet he was such an early adopter and major proponent of the internet; he was incredibly visionary in terms of realising the utility and revolutionary nature of it. Seemed so inspired by it.
And how cool is it that this was filmed during the "Outside" sessions. Such an epic album, more people need to give it a listen
It’s among my favourites.
Yes, definitely. In fact i think Bowie had a real hot streak from Outside thru to Reality
@@theradioattheendoftheworld4251 through to Blackstar.
"can I get a coffee.... and a drummer".
That bit tickled me only Bowie would say that 😂
Bowie wasn't just an artist... he was and always will be a work of everlasting art... imitated by many, duplicated by done. Love you David... love everlasting.
First time properly listened to Bowie talk about things. Interesting thoughts, insights. A pleasure to listen.
I'm not sure Bowie knew what an innovator he was as an artist. Everything he did he never imitated anyone but always followed his own vision. As a person he seemed very genuine and thoughtful. Like he was just a nice guy who happened to be a creative genius.
Just a creative genius who happened to be a nice guy*
He's fascinating.
He's 68 years old and will probably live to be 90.

Oops...
I feel great sadness.
I'm The Future Buddha.
I showed the film Inspirations every quarter in my Conceptual Thinking class. I understood Bowie much better after watching this.
"I can get quite negative, when I get into my own thing. When I'm just in my own mind, it's so dangerous neighbourhood"
He never knew me, so how could he describe me so accurately.
I deeply miss you Angel.
He was an Inspiration for everyone who felt lost somewhere on the way. And he is absolutely right. I'm working at a regular job, but I'm also a painter and my very best paintings came just out of my mind. He was such a wonderful soul
Such a marvelous looking man and that voice and way of speaking I could watch this forever. Just imagine getting to hang out with him. His friends, and colleagues must have felt quite a hole in their lives when he passed.
he changed music.. he altered the fabric of music.. he is a living legend.
Could quite happily listen to DB talking for the rest of my life ⚡😊❤️🙏
There are simply no words to describe the many attributes of you. David Bowie is. Rest in peace David Jones.
I feel very strongly the need to comment, I can’t articulate the words of how this has impacted me at this time. I’m sure you have that feeling at times…
So astounding. The music and dance at the end blew me away.
Dead men don't talk, but they do tell the truth.
He left us too soon.
poor old soul... god is evil
For me, anytime would have been too soon. I expect I will miss him forever.
But look at what hes left us...Hes still here inspiring us, captivating us. His beautiful soul knows how much we love him x
David Bowie the body of your life's work is and will LIVE ON Thank You!!!!
This video is gold. I love the reflections and artistic advice David gives.
I love and cherish this interview of David, encapsulates his beautiful mind and talent. He was art itself. In many ways, I dont feel he has left planet earth, he has gifted us so much, will continue to influence art and music for many many decades. David was way ahead of his time.
omg how have I not seen this before! this is gold! gosh I love his 90's period so much thank you for uploading!
In a parallel universe, David Bowie is my husband. Happy birthday David
Marina Onofre hi
No conflict from me, as he’s my older brother, whom I’ve never met.
And mine!!!!!!
Those amazing eyes just pulls you in!!!!
@redsails2008 Glad you like it : )) Done it for all you Bowielovers out there!
This is what I've been looking for, been trying to find out if he painted and now i know he did, makes me really happy lol
David Bowie was a true genius and gentlemen. some of the things that he is said that you look back on our pretty profound when you watch dozens of interviews I'm amazed with his intelligence and always holds a gentleman composure. it would have been awesome to have been able to hang out with him for a day and got to ask him about anyting in his videos and about all the great times that he had out on the road back in the day , it was so awesome to watch his career from beginning to end it was amazing,
I love how his Style Changes every decade..lol
My favorite being from the 90's that was my favorite Bowie
I love this movie, and show it to my Art Media Techniques class every year. Bowie is amazing, and so are the other artists that the movie covers: Tadao Ando, Dale Chihuly, Louise Lecavalier, the late Roy Lichtenstein, Edouard Lock, and Nora Naranjo-Morse
+alissa apel Hello, where did you get the movie?? I've been looking for it for the past year!
+Andrea Torres I'm sorry I got it about 8 years ago on Amazon. It may not be sold anymore. Art video tend to do that. :(
And Randy Kay, the guitarist accompanying Louise Lecavalier et al.
I love his hair like that ❤️
Thank you for including the dance segment towards the end; I rented this DVD years back and the Bowie bits and the dances are the strongest bits. That dance performance gives me double goosebumps
Absolutely brilliant ...not seen this before...and I love Outside ...apparently there's so much video recorded...I hope to see it all someday ;)
Great job! When I saw the exhibition "David Bowie-Among the Mexican Masters" there was a video loop of exactly that playing on a large screen in the center of the space. I thought that was what I was watching just now!
i've been looking for this DVD for Years!!! thank you so much for uploading this footage!!!
Ladies and gentlemen, the most electrifying dance sequence most of us will ever lay eyes on. Wild and lightning fast, with combinations including ragdolling and martial arts moves? Seems that way to me folk.
Just found this and it is exactly what I needed to keep going. David Bowie's music always resonates with me, and this compilation makes me see how articulate he was in a way that explains exactly how I feel about art and our (artists) place in the world. Will be watching this again...and I wish I had a Verbisizer...oh the surrealist work it would inspire! Thank you.
Beautiful
Thank you so much to posting this! Much appreciated
Most interesting Bowie interview I've seen.
I miss him so much, I grew up with his music and loved him since I as a kid. He was my crush when he made “Jareth” in Labyrinth ♥️😭
You remind me of the babe....
I remember seeing that at the cinema when it was released. Two girls took me, both kept talking about his trousers....
I had a massive crush on Jared!!!!! I still have!!!!! X
Same hahah, i was 9 years old and didnt even know that he was bowie, Just discovered much much later
@@LeeGee and even today those trousers are still talked about lol
Love what you did. Thank you for this work of art.
Thanks for uploading, I saw a snippet of this footage at the; David Bowie is... Exhibit in Melbourne today, it's great to see the full feature! Inspiring
Best doc/interview on Bowie in a long time!! 😮👍👍
Awwww he so cute. I love him - he so excited about his PC Software, isn't he?
Anything progressive, avantgardist.
"sometimes I'm useful currency, sometimes I'm not"
The master at work
AAhhh! Thank you taking the time to put this together much appreciated.
Thank you so much for this gathering - much appreciated !
SOWCASE THOSE NEW CHOPPRERS DAVID, THOUGH I STILL MISS THE CROOKED ONES FOR SOME REASON, YOU ARE A TRUE INSPIRATION. I WILL MISS YOU FOREVER.
I also have 1960s NHS dentistry teeth. I’m hoping to invest in a full set of implants.

8:23 out of context is priceless. It's so random but lovely
Thanks for Uploading this video, BOWIElover! Great, inspiring footage!
Enjoyed this very much. Good job. Good choice with the credits - and the dance at the end!
Thank you so much for this. I really needed to hear everything he had to say.
The whole DVD might be really great but this series of cut out is fantastic, and even the 'poor' editing is adding spice to it. Because i did not read your description and had no idea it was a cut out from whatever, and so these glimpses of other poeple around creating were great illustration of life and creativity at work,... and adding a very tiny bit of nonsensical disturbing chaos in the editing, given the topic (which I thought was Bowie Inspiration) did not harm indeed. Thanks twice then.
I love his words on what being an artist is about..... "Always remember that the reason you initially started working is that there is something inside yourself tht you felt that if you could manifest it in somehway you would understand more about yourself and how you coexist with the rest of society" ..... and..... "If you feel safe, ....always go a little bit further, ....when you don't feel that your feet are quite touching the bottom, you just are about the right place...." Bowie, Be my Father!
Agreed! All of it!
amo a este super hombre ...te extrañó un montón 😢
4:21 and he DID write a song about that!
Very interesting, thank you for uploading, I am really very impressed by DB and his approach to art. I appreciate him so much. I think the whole film must be interesting.
Thanks a lot for editing & uploading !!
Interesting person...interesting life.
I hope and pray that he is in a beautiful place.
Amen.
He is! Creating the most amazing astral concerts...hes living on! X
Some new Bowie cut up program. Of course. "When I'm just in my own mind, it's a dangerous neighborhood" The truth!
thanks for putting this up very interesting...never seen it before
Love Love this little video.
Always love & missing my Starman ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆
Well...now I'm inspired. Thank you for sharing. Cheers.
Bowie Was Such A Beautiful Human Being one of the very very few That Used His iconic Revolutionary World Wide Fame I Think To Speak For The Ones That Would never be Heard in Reality!
This Man Is never Talking about himself But About Reality, inequality, Racism on Television with Music channels not playing Black Music.and about a Rock stars ego.
This was a living spirit of Life and Love and Equality,.
So Long Ziggy Stardust.
The Great David Bowie!
Rest in peace, Mr. Jones.
David Bowie was a genius
Thank you I enjoyed that very much
Fantastic! Love it! Thanks so much for posting!
love him
Really interesting, thanks for uploading!
This guy is creative as fuck.
+Teresa Gomes and as handsome as well
The verbasizer seems a lot like
William Burroughs, "The Cut Up Method"
'Same old thing in brand new drag' David. ; - P
+thevisitor
If you watch the Bowie documentary "Cracked Actor" (which is on YT) you can see him cutting up written words on paper to create little cards and switching them around to create lyric lines.
+thevisitor You're right, although to be fair, Bowie always credited Burroughs with inspiring his own cut-up approach.
If you wanna be accurate in credits, cut-up is Brion Gyssin's invention. :) Bowie often credited to both, Gyssin and Burroughs. :)
Bowie said he learned it from Burroughs.
Thank you so much for this video.
Singer David Bowie (wanted to work in Advertising)
Artist Andy Warhol (worked & then owned his own AD agency)
Filmmaker John Hughes (previously worked at a AD agency)
Actor Hugh Grant (previously worked at an AD agency)
Singer Lou Reed (wrote jingles for various AD agencies/ freelanced)
I know he's an inspiration to me and I'm sure many others ❤
Beautiful David x
David Bowie is the best!
Enjoyed this video! All the best!!
Very interesting interview, that i haven't seen b4.
A computer program that does the same thing that Bowie got from William Burroughs ; it was done with scissors and the printed page years ago, cut and paste was a term before computers came into being.
That's what Bowie used to help him write songs before the Verbasizer..🤔
Brion Gysin invented the cut-up technique of writing. Burroughs got it from him.
he never lost his charme 😍
David Bowie is a muscial genius.
thank you so much for this
Bloody brilliant
David don't leave us alone with all the bad music of today, pelase return to the music, any genere, all you make is genious, Please come back!
He returned a strong return before his death.
Very interesting, I had no idea he had programmed, and what a great idea. :)
we all lose our "mojo" sometimes. it's how we know "it" exists
Bless you
Finally, an explanation why Bowie was unlistenable from 1987 to 2014. He had an AI computer write his lyrics and recorded them on broken equipment.
Always get up early. Great advice.
So cool~ Thank you so much!!
-------------------------------------- the GLORIOUS and ETERNAL(lly) INSPIRATIONAL David Bowie -----------------------------
Bowie did a little dance with the female dancer you see in the end in 1989 on stage and then filmed it for his 1990 world tour. so he did that too in his career.
do you know what's the dancers name?
