... View Moreyes, it's very entertaining (and for some, quite stunning), somewhat similar to the classic "mind's eye" video of about 15-20 years agobut it's also quite different, because its educational value is quite large, encompassing music, technology, and creativity, in general, (at least)absolutely a must-see for those who are musically, technologically, or generally creatively inclinedit is very interested to watch the intricacies of animated mechanical motion that match sounds in rhythm, even though particular music is played (or some similar corresponding time-related feature)also, the term "spoiler" does not apply to this video and its relatives
... View MoreIf you have a mind that envisions light with sound, you will love this DVD! It's not only computer animation, but it is computer animation to the exact sound that's being played! Amazing work, I look forward to their next release! This is more than a mere gathering of clever animations. The works featured in Animusic are the first step toward an entire new entertainment field. The technological innovations accomplished with this are very impressive. What they've done here takes our Mind's Eye 'video album' concept a big step farther, combining music and animation in such an integrated and dynamic manner.I LOVE the imagination that was put into creating the various instruments the rendering is GREAT . . . and I TOTALLY enjoy the music.
... View MoreWow! Not only do I agree with the above comments, but I am buying several Animusics for friends and family to enjoy because I want to share this mesmerizing technological treasure. The music alone is unique and pleasantly addictive, even after several viewings. Children and adults alike are highly fascinated by all the different instruments and activities going on at once in perfect harmony and flawless timing. It is a true and delightful inspiration that I recommend to anybody for a gleeful uplifting of spirits. Watching Animusic with first-timers is an ultimate satisfaction when their mouths fly open just like mine did. It keeps them very busy wondering what is going to happen next. Thanks, Animusic Team, for such a brilliant masterpiece added to my collection.
... View MoreLike many others, I first saw one of the segments of this DVD as a short on PBS. The scene depicted a musical "instrument" consisting of steel balls fired out of tubes and landing on piano wires, drums, moving xylophone bars, etc., bouncing off, and landing in cups to be recycled.For most of the first time I saw this, I was awestruck that anyone could build such a precision machine. Well, April Fools on me. They can't (of course). But it's that real.The other scenes show equally beautiful, though less plausible, instruments, playing gorgeous rock/classical fusion music.Worth a look.
