Aaaaaaaaaa, that is beautiful. I love the layering and the sense of . . . breathing architectural space it creates.

I almost feel ready to go back and watch BSG again. I think it's finally been long enough.

Thank you! :D I'm so glad you like the aesthetics - it took me a long time to nail down the look I wanted. I'll be honest, revisiting BSG was a strange experience, in some ways cathartic, in others unsettling, but definitely interesting. If you go there, I'd be interested in how it feels to you.

This is just so damn beautiful. The song choice is amaaaaazing and the layering looks so great and the images you picked to layer over each other are visually clear and striking, while also creating awesome connections. I feel like I want to unpack the layers of meaning in the images and lyrics and connections, like in the old days of BSG< but I don't have words! It's too pretty, it broke my words! <3

Awwww ♥ thank you. It took a while to get the overlaying to the point I felt it was...confusing/clear at the same time, so I'm really happy that seems to be working for everyone. Going back to BSG is so weird - like seductive and conflicting simultaneously, but I'm so glad it captured some of that for you. The datastream needs no words!

Oh wow, this is fantastic! It feels like I just want to watch it over and over again to gage all the connections you've created. Dl for keeps :D

you make very, very pretty vids. *pets the painterly light of this, surrenders to the layered sounds*

Oh, this is beautiful - and I love the focus on how each of these women's bodies were constructed in mysterious ways but how they try to shape and mold it. AH!
