I've seen many of these types of documentaries, from Visitors to Koyanniqasti but I really like these two and think they are the best of them so far, they serve for as me a form of meditation done through my eyes and a calm to a very busy life.
They open the veneer of our Anthropocene and show the damage, inertia and pattern to the things we do daily. Perfected by Ron Ficke, these master classes show years of patient recording of the world with Time gap interface that capture the clouds, tides, sun rise and sun set, giving them their most needed cognizance.They serve for me as a form of meditation because it is laced with a background music that come straight from the world of dreams, and I travel to all these places from the comfort of my room seeing different locations and people in mesmerizing wonder, From the Whirling dervishes of Turkey, the standout Kecak Ritual of Indonesia and the aborigine Indian people in the Rain forest of Brazil, It belittled and expanded my world at the same time.
We don’t really know how farm like, redundant and repetitive our lives are until we are played an omnipotent view of it in fast forward mode like the amount of people Transiting to and fro in the Shinjuku Train Station in Japan can be likened to the hatching of Day Old Chicks in a breeder farm and in comparison the work, house, pattern of our life coulc also be a form, if not own farm, added in dreamlike scenery are the Ozymandic repletes of Ancients Buldings and Monuments and Dilapidated Empires.
The end result is a Calmer me.
