The Gate To The Mind's Eye - Dolby (1994) -animation collection
I think this is Thomas Dolby's best work. I reposted, finding a higher res version (it seems it is) at https://archive.org/details/gatetothemindseyedvd
it might grab you, and before you know it, it's ending. I just re-watched the whole thing.
-There are so many screen grabs I could use, settled for a Rumble suggested one. AMazing collection of animators and Dolby must have had laser focus writing the score to the imagery.
The film is made up of various computer artists separate unrelated promo vids, quite advanced for the early 90s ...the credits are long - the last 10 mins of the movie! (dozens of animators, to a medley of the film.)
That Thomas put then all together into a cohesive production is a stroke of pure genius.
I especially like "Valley Of The Mind's Eye"
(from "The Gate To The Mind's Eye" soundtrack)
Ma chère Josephine
Que le monde a changé depuis ma derniere lettre
Ainsi ce soir je prends ma plume
Non pas pour me merveiller
Sur l'epoque ou nous vivons
Mais pour declarer l'amour
Qui est dans mon coeur
If a song was a road
I would ride through the night to you
There's a moon on the rise
And I'm drawn on the tide to you
And I will be with you
And I will stay with you
And I will dream with you
If you need me to
Anytime, anywhere
In a corner of your mind's eye
Planets will cool, Josie
Tyrants will rule, Josie
I will be here for you
Oceans divide, Josie
Stars will collide, Josie
Nations will rise and fall
And never see the world through these eyes
Dreams of falling - dreams of flying
A man who never dreams goes slowly mad
The dawn of science, the age of reason
This is the voyage of the mind's eye
And I will be with you
I will stay with you
And I will dream with you
If you need me to
Anytime, anywhere
In a corner of your mind's eye
In a corner of your mind's eye
Rumble, I think, limits resolution to 480p. IDK if it's higher at archive, but seems so.
DEFINITELY listen through a stereo system, big speakers, surround sound best! - it is high fidelity stereo with big separation of sound images. Play it loud. Wake your neighbors! :_) 'Armageddon,' the opening song willl.
Many great pieces of sonic travel into the mind's eye./stands alone -without the video! - but the video is pretty impressive given the release date, before cellphones became super huge.
Dolby IS a musical genius, but not a political one. You can't have it all, they say.
The CD version is much different, w/o the film's sound effects.
