Wikipedia: “While Koyaanisqatsi and Powaqqatsi examine modern life in industrial countries and the conflict between encroaching industrialization and traditional ways of life, using slow motion and time-lapse footage of cities and natural landscapes, about eighty percent of Naqoyqatsi uses archive footage and stock images manipulated and processed digitally on non-linear editing (non-sequential) workstations and intercut with specially-produced computer generated imagery to demonstrate society's transition from a natural environment to a technology-based one. Reggio described the process as “virtual cinema“. Guess that's why it wasn't as acclaimed by critics and fans. It's not like the other two. Different. Not the expected third part of the Qatsi-trilogy. Hope you share my sympathy for artists that refuse meeting what is expected from them, for the sake of their art. The cover of the DVD is ugly. I didn't even listen once to the original soundtrack. Koyaan
