    The grid is an invisible energy that drives everything in our daily life. Our civilization depends on it. Sometimes itʼs beautiful, yet terrifying at the same time. This music video shows us how the grid causes the world to move very quickly with each passing time, while our mundane activities completely shroud us from ever realizing it.

      Let down is absolutely not the most underrated Radiohead song simply due to the fact it is on OK Computer. For that title I’d go to a single or one of their less reputable albums such as You on Pablo Honey or Spectre or Cuttooth (both singles)

    So I'm the one who came up with the idea of syncing this part of Koyaanisqatsi to Let Down and for a moment I thought you just had reposted my video, which speaks to how good job you did recreating the whole sequence of the film.
    You know, when I first made it, thought it was nice, and then left it on my hard drive for 3 years because I considered it wouldn't be interesting enough. Only after finding it one day and watching it again I finally decided to post it in reddit. So given that it's quite nice to find out that it inspired someone to spend a year creating a whole new video in the same style.

    Wow, I don't know where to start!! I am absolutely blessed and shocked by the bliss this video has captured. Trust me, it was totally worth the 12 months. The transition in the video, particularly at 1:08, from the scene of people on the beach to the dynamic imagery of the accelerated train track... just wow. Or at 4:20, the smile of the woman was just perfect.. So heart-warming! What even are the odds to capture this??
    I also love how the video is sped up. It shows that the "right now" is meaningless
    I love to think that the electronic "glimmering" noises at 4:42 are reflected as a thousand rushing cars passing by within seconds, giving the sense of a thousand living creatures either living life, having families, confront their own problems, etc. We are just like ants.. Life is rushing by as we don't notice
    I have no further words, I am just shocked by this utter beauty. Thank you

      Thank you so much! I’m really happy to see how everyone is connecting with the video in their own way. Since you enjoyed some of the shots in there I’d highly recommend the movie titled Koyaanisqatsi (1982). I took a lot of inspiration from it and some of the shots were a direct homeage. It explores the themes of humanity in even more detail. Once again thank you!

I am also a big fan of Philip Glass, especially in connection with David Bowie. He's my nummero uno lol. I am not a huge fan of radiohead in fact, but I do love a handful of songs, especially Let Down has grown so deep within me

    Man, when I read your reddit post that you were making a remake of the famous Koyaanisqatsi "grid" shots, I was not enthusiastic. After watching this, you've proven me dead wrong. What an amazing project.

    A very lyrical and at the same time deep look at the city. A kind of portrait of a place through human images. At the same time such a very young view of the world, full of hope and seeing only the best in others. Personally, it seems to me that the mood of the video does not quite coincide with the despondency of Radiohead. But for me, this video is more than just a fan clip. The amount of work done and the variety of techniques found for shooting is impressive. Undoubtedly a talented film.
