# See above
i like the opening sequance in Powaqqatsi with the miners. and some of the koean bits (like the masses of tower blocks) are striking images. but i could watch Koyaanisqatsi over and over again. But not type it though.

# Koyaanisqatsi Koyaanisqatsi Koyaanisqatsi Koyaanisqatsi Koyaanisqatsi
;)
Know what you mean tho, I used to leave it playing late at night before going to sleep...Koyaanisqatsi Koyaanisqatsi Koyaanisqatsi etc etc...
Haven't seen Naqoyqatsi (?) either, but from what I've read it's awful, a complete travesty compared to the first two..
hey ho.

# Arse.
Will have to get it though just to complete the collection i guess. my personal favourite Koyaanisqatsi moment is the guy in the ice cream shop.

# Damn you
I'm gonna have to stick that on tonight now to remind myself of the bit you mean...
Only things I can remember atm are the grand canyon shots and the beginning and the people commuting and the sausages/factory...bit like the opening titles to Soylent green but accelerated...
You ever play Delta on the c64 btw?

# Ah right...
hey ho, just mentioned it as the tune from that was basically a blatant ripooff/homage to Koyaanisqatsi, but sped up a bit...One to look out for sometime (if you like old style c64 tunes that is)
I'm orf to dig out my dvd and go to bed now, n'night!
