At the end of a blustery February afternoon I was strolling through Expert Village and came across this encapsulation of creation by Chris Thompson. To me, it was reminiscent of the film Koyaanisqatsi by Godfrey Reggio. The soundtrack to this video wasn't by Philip Glass (now that would have been a happy coincidence), nor did the video give the sense of a 'life out of balance', which is what Koyaanisqatsi means in the Hopi language. Okay, so it seems it had very little in common with the movie, aside from time-lapse photography and atmospheric music. However, for a cursory view of the process of producing a stained glass panel, it not only illustrates the steps involved, but it takes you into the creative process, kinda like Eisenstein, ya know?
