I just watched the video having read these comments, but I was so
wrapped up in trying to figure out if the visual textures correlated
with the audio textures that 1:30-1:45 came and went and by the time I
looked at the time, the time was 2:30-2:45 :-)

I like the whole overall sound and mood of the music. I think I was
more wanting something to change in the visuals at around the 1:30-45
mark even though I found it quite absorbing trying to work out if
there were barely visible images coming through them. So it was
satisfying when they do change ;-)

The music brought to mind this track by the Aphex Twin:

But it's nothing like it! Other than (in my half-educated mind)
sounding 'classical' and 'electronic' both at the same time (which I
always found that track by the twin to be quite the anti-dote to
pop-pop-poppy-pop music which stole its way into my head with
triteness)..

Cheers,
James.
