This video is amazing! Visually it's beautiful, but what really gets me is how it was made. I watched the documentary about Draves on his site and I think he's onto something really profound. Wow, wow, wow.

This excerpt is a beautifully explicit introduction to the art of Mr. Draves and the Electric Sheep the demo is comprised of. The crisp, 1080p resolution allows you to see many, many amazing details normally obscured in the popular 'electric sheep' screen saver, rendering them even more amazing still. The gorgeous color pallets and undulating shapes are absolutely captivating, and offer an interesting peek into the future when such high resolutions and the computing power to generate them will be ubiquitous.

Any HD capable Television would be elevated to new heights with this disc playing on it, and if you have such a TV I would highly recommend this movie based on the demo I have seen alone. Truly astounding work !
