Using visuals from Kubrick's 2001;

Really nicely done. Could have easily been a ham-fisted mess of badly cut Kubrick and Trumbull visuals, but that really turned out great. Always love how different visuals bring new and unexpected aspects to familiar BOC tunes.

It amazing how this film past so many years still kicks ass! Also this tracks one of the best on the album. Good video!

Thanks for the comments :wink: I thought I'd get away from the apocalyptic angle for this one. Clearly this seems to be a strong narrative of Tomorrow's Harvest. But there is some beautiful music on the album that certainly doesn't sound so gloomy to me.

Cheers :wink: Yes 2001 is an amazing movie. It's hard to believe it was made so long ago (it came out in April 1968!!!) & still manages to look so incredible & be so profound. There has been nothing quite like it before or since ..... a bit like Boards of Canada :)

2001 is pretty much my favourite film of all time, and I love seeing it used like this. Yesterday I watched 2010 (also a favourite but not in the same league as Kubrick's original), a film that I've previously considered using for a BOC vid before Tomorrow's Harvest surfaced. But I'd have inevitably screwed it up - and seeing the end result of yours, 2010 would be very, very weak as the visual component compared to the original that you've so lovingly utilised.

Hats off to you, man. Seriously :D

Thanks for the comments, Twoist :wink:

2010 is not a patch on 2001. But it's a very good sc-fi film that has some cool visuals. Maybe another video project in there somewhere :)
