Max Richter _ From the Art of Mirrors _ Mnemographies

[@UnspokenOldOne]

Still one of the best things I've ever watched.

[@manuelme9075]

And listened*

[@Wiiniiia]

this made me cry, I consider Max Richter as one of the most talented living composer our world has.

[@davepowell7168]

Who else? Be honest

[@CarFox6]

These songs and videos are the epitome of melancholy.

[@sofiamicalli6467]

the excerpt of the poem that appears in the film, belongs to the poem by Thomas Hardy - Moments of Vision That mirror Which makes of men a transparency, Who holds that mirror And bids us such a breast-bare spectacle see Of you and me? That mirror Whose magic penetrates like a dart, Who lifts that mirror And throws our mind back on us, and our heart, until we start? That mirror Works well in these night hours of ache; Why in that mirror Are tincts we never see ourselves once take When the world is awake? That mirror Can test each mortal when unaware; Yea, that strange mirror May catch his last thoughts, whole life foul or fair, Glassing it -- where?

[@luckyyuri]

My being is illiterate when it comes to abstract poetic experience. What might these words suppose to mean? I'm not asking for the subtleties, just the verbal backbone.. Is the mirror a metaphor for consciousness, and the author asks "who raised that mirror" in a somewhat similar way to how a scientist might ask "what process leads to conscious organisms"?

[@ramenisgood4u]

@@luckyyuri One of the reasons people like poetry so much is because of the ambiguity of its meaning. This means that while it is typically not specific in its meaning (unlike prose/normal speech, or text - which is designed to be specific and unconfusing), poetry can offer a meaning prose is unable to command. It can mean X, Y, both, or neither - depending on you. I'm sorry this isn't a straight answer to your question, but there is no set straight answer to your question. It's up to you the reader to create your own meaning from the text. That being said, you are correct in that I believe this poem has themes of The Self and Consiousness. I'd encourage you to keep reading, you'll find what you like. It's really worth it, even if you dip into it a little from time to time. If you like, let me know what you're interested in and I'd be happy to give you some recommendations. Don't worry about being too specific, as long as I get the idea.

Ipnotico, bellissimo, siamo fantasmi di passaggio su questa terra.....

[@pzzzpen]

Thank you so much for this truly moving video. The visuals were perfect companions to the music.

[@misanthropisteva55]

One of the best videos I've ever seen in accompaniment to a classical piece. Shooting with a broken camera was precisely the right touch needed for a nostalgic vibe. Bravo! :)

[@igunzOsick]

I think by listening to max's songs I would get along with him.

[@eric_lander]

.... the video and the music are both true works of art ...

[@RixMorales]

I came upon this wonderful piece of art sometime in 2011 or 2012, at a time when I'm about to finish college and was worried about the future coming ahead. Around the same time I left home and my parents to search for better opportunities in the city. I cannot express in words what I felt during that time, and it's the same emotions I feel with this video. It's like a mixture of profound sadness but with a tinge of hope. It's like looking back at the past, like seeing fleeting memories fly by and feeling nostalgic about them. I feel a sense of grief and comfort at the same time listening to it. I really can't explain. Like the flash of images and montage seen in this video, it's like peering into your memories. Thank you for putting up this video for us.

[@ilCieloconunDito]

STUNNING imagery, stunning.......what a ghost would see

[@mikeynma]

I was just going through some old videos from a band I was in and our song Be My Nightime was used on this originally :) I am so glad I found it again!

[@Happypig16]

Hi Michael! I hope all is well with you. Yes! Romain Olivieri proposed using this Max Ritcher track and it goes brilliantly, but the original with Be my Nightime also goes perfect with the footage and it's so different, really worth watching both versions.

[@miriamjoy2082]

Exquisite as usual

[@oscarkinkster6873]

8:18 Ocho minutos y dieciocho segundos para dejar de respirar Y tres segundos para que mi alma aúlle y se parta Ya no hay tiempo, la partida se acaba Cuando miro atrás, veo todos mis castillos en el fondo del mar Aún respiro tu mirada, aún siento tu sonrisa en mi pésima nada Ya no hay acordes para conjugar palabras, ni besos, ni sombras…. Mi reloj de arena mojada por fin arranca y con deseo infinito, de conquistar otra vez tu aurea Deseo estar contigo pronto, porque mi tren ya no tiene paradas

[@BarefootBillyIII]

Who lifts that mirror, and throws our mind back on us, and our heart, Until we start?

Expressive and appropriate association of music and images. What movie camera did you use?

[@SusieWest5]

This is different from an official version I keep finding. No railway sounds etc. Does someone know what this version is called on Spotify if it's even on there?

[@montsrubi]

hi there. sorry for my very very late reply. the original version doesn’t have sound effects. only on our interpretation of this theme . You can only find it like that on this video. thank you
