I think Pi is more of an Autechre movie to be honest. But it suits tracks like "music is math" too of course :)
I see what you mean but a lot of the various black and white visuals gave me that distinctive BoC feel... expecially the very last scene. the entire movie definitely reminds me of music is math too.

I noticed all The Andromeda Strain mentions, then when checking it out on Wikipedia I noticed this tidbit:

"The film had a soundtrack release, but it was a limited edition of 10,000 records released by Kapp Records in 1971 under the supervision of director Robert Wise (at a cost of $20,000). The records were hexagon-shaped and came in hexagon-shaped record sleeves. The album was re-released shortly afterward as a conventional 12" LP in a regular square sleeve."

Hmm...hexagon-shaped vinyl? No wonder the boc bros say it's one of their favourite flicks. I wanna get me one of those...

Everyone needs to see this. It is such an stunning documentary (and yes quite a mind trip--Watch the deep ocean for that :evil:).

The things they filmed that I had never seen or heard of before had me saying "what?!" probably about two or three dozen times.

The ocean is a damn evil and beautiful place.

I saw a documentary about all the deep sea creatures on Animal Planet a few days ago. Perhaps it was the same thing you're talking about. There are lots of bizarre creatures down there!

I'll bet God was like, "Well, nobody's ever going to see these things... I'll just make them out of mythical monsters and animal leftovers!"

Maybe. Mine has a different cover, but the description sounds the same.

Picnic at Hanging Rock and The Virgin Suicides definitely. Visually stunning with something sinister lurking underneath. Possibly the Cemnt Garden too.

That's the one -qatsi I haven't seen yet. Though it's been sitting in my DVD collection for a year or so now.
