Communication by Homeless Balloon

This is the official music video for the ambient, downtempo electronic composition "Communication" taken from the album "Travel in Silence" by Homeless Balloon. I composed the music and created the animations with ArtMatic, ArtMaticPro, Photoshop and FinalCutPro. Special thanks to Dick Scherzinger (http://www.artmatica.ch/) for creating the flying object. Special thanks also to Eric Wenger and Edward Spiegel for creating ArtMatic and the other great tools at uisoftware.com. More info at http://uisoftware.com

Some reflections that inspired me to make this music and video:
What is the most important invention man has made? it's not the engine or the car, not the vacines or the space travels or landing on the moon. It's the tools for communicating across the world, first via the written word, the storytelling, the phone, movies and television, now the Internet. This video is playing a little with the thought that if there is only one human being left in the universe, and she takes her last space travel - how will that travel be? Bits and pieces of dying voices, echoes of humans trying to reach each other. Perhaps will the words we said and the songs we sang never die? The audio levels are almost at zero by now, but the meanings are still there...?

I originally composed this dreamy and peaceful ambient chill out lounge piece for a fantasy story in National Radio in my home country Norway. I later remixed it and released it for the Homeless Balloon album "Travel in Silence" in 2007. I created the animations by using ArtMaticPro and ArtMatic Voyager, and several of the sound effects and musical phrases were created with MetaSynth - all three software applications from uisoftware.com.

Some reflections that inspired me to compose the music and create the video:
Every human has one or more times looked up into the starry night and wondered how big the universe is. It doesn't matter how great your ego is, or how proud you are of being an atheist or religious believer - you have the same question as the rest of us: Where do I come from, and what is the meaning of it all? - This video is playing with Space, our universe, order and chaos - and eternity.
