I agree, I have a hunch that the Vicarious one will be really good too.

Re: my favorite tool video

parabol/a is by far my favorite video , it just resonates with meaning to me ( the song and the visuals) . i hope vicarious is just as powerful.

The 'grapes' are the Flower of Life; which is the main symbol of Sacred Geometry.

Correlates to the images inside the apple at the beginning of Parabol.http://stashbox.org/2034/flower-of-life-header3d.jpg

Re: my favorite tool video

hiya all ive been away for soooo long from this site... anyway...

have anyone had those mandala-like visions on mushrooms as i did? (those colorful spiral rings as in this video and in alex gray works) it pretty changed my life and the my perception of seeing this world... and it was way before i saw the parabola video... that is why it is so close and important to me... just wanted to share this with you...

Re: my favorite tool video

I like the part when the fat men form the sircle and then the symbol...
it's a great way to start the main part

Re: my favorite tool video

Incredible video. My interpretation of the ending, and it was awesome, is that the man became transcendent, attained nirvana as it were, and activated his pineal gland or "third eye".

Re: my favorite tool video

Great example of art complimenting music. Very visually appealing, and one of the few Tool videos I would view as 'beautiful'. However, it never struck a chord with me like Prison Sex or Aenima did.

They were definitely going in a good direction..
