OM NOM NOM NOM!

That's Philip Glass. Y'all have never seen any of the '-qatsi' trilogy?

Don't you mean:

That's Philip Glass. That's Philip Glass. That's Philip Glass. That's Philip Glass. That's Philip Glass. That's Philip Glass. That's Philip Glass. That's Philip Glass.

I always thought it was

Cool!!

That's is absolutely amazing! Thank you very much!

That's awesome! Chomp-chomp-chomp...

That's really clever! I think that's the music from the scene in Koyaanisqatsi where the projects in the Bronx are demolished. A nice touch of irony, if that's the case.

Really fun time lapse. Much more fun than watching it in real time!

Thanks, Matt! Keeps me within my entertainment budget this week.
All it lacked was a mournful crackhead singing tenor in the background.

Very cool time lapse video though it's sad that all that dimensional lumber (and everything else) was just sent to the landfill.

I over heard one of the contractors say that there wasnt anything worth even trying to salvage from the house. Someone asked the same thing while I was there watching some of the demo.

Pruitt Igoe.

You'd think folks in media would recognize the -qatsi when they saw it :)

As fun as the video is, it's wrong to blame the house for its inhabitants' actions. Just guessing, it was an early 1900s building that was certainly lovely in its day and could have definitely been renovated. Maybe "there wasnt anything worth even trying to salvage from the house," as one of the contractors said, but their goal is never historical preservation -- only profit.

That was some amazing camera work (meaning positioning). Did you have to leave the camera unattended in an open area to get some of those angles? I would have been worried about losing the camera.

Still great work!

No, I'm way too paranoid when it comes to my camera! The only shot that was left unattended was the high/wide shot at the beginning, which was from my deck.

Fantastic, ironic and thoroughly entertaining to witness. Thank you for posting this!

Good vid, Matt. Enjoyed it.
