Reposting Arvo Part - "Tabula Rasa" - remix and film by Cesar Harada

I posted this video back in 2005 but the quality was really poor, so here it is again, in much better quality! The music is Arvo Part Estonian composer, I re-mixed different tracks from "Tabula Rasa", a truly marvelous album. This was an animation exercise at the ENSAD (Ecole Nationale Superieure des Arts Decoratifs) but I took it very seriously. The film is very abstract, but it does connect with a couple of sad - and hopeful - stories of mine.
You can see how this film was made in this instructables.
I'm curious about how this film makes you feel, please share, comment ...
