that doesn't matter.

IT DOESNT MOVE! the shapes + stuff just change really really
fast, and non-smooth like.

yeah, I really loved it....it's totally non-narrative
driven, there's no story to follow so I guess that's perhaps
where it might not be up everyones street...

Personally, I feel the non-narrative approach suits AEs work
extremely well and I wouldn't want it any other way. that's
the big failing of the BassCadet/Motion video to my eyes...
a huge part of AEs appeal is their 100% abstract approach;
you can't really listen to an AE song and say "yeah, XXX is
about YYY", you have to kinda supply that info
yourself...and I guess that why I find GG so engaging...it
keeps that enigmatic quality...

And I've been waiting for years for a video that took the
approach GG does..where the visual is massively linked to
the audio; Fused is a nice term for it, I guess....as its
been a long term project of mine to get something like this
together (<- my avatar is tiny, scaled-down part of
it...)...& seeing GG has motivated me loads...

I definately think the future of IDM lies in taking it's
audio sophistication and DIY ethic into the audio/visual
realm & I kinda see GG as big part of that progression...

I felt the same way. I didn't even like the track until I
saw the video and then I felt like I did when I first heard
LP5 - like someone is pushing the envelope and the
capabilities of things. and as you say, the audio and video
are so linked that you get the feeling that they are being
created from the same data. you notice more things in the
audio because of the video and vice versa; it becomes a
completely engulfing experience.

and I agree that a huge part of its beauty is its
objectivity and the sense that it exists for its own sake
and isn't trying to make a statement or a narrative.

I've always felt that what sets this type of music apart
from all the other popular modern music is a sense of art
and creativity. I agree that it's very possible and very
exciting that it could combine with visuals in the future
(and who knows, maybe we'll have visual "remixes" too...)
