NOTES:
Ko.yaa.nis.qatsi (from the Hopi language), n. 1. Crazy life. 2. Life in turmoil.
3. Life disintegrating. 4. Life out of balance. 5. A state of life that
calls for another way of living.
This album contains selections from the soundtrack of the motion picture Koyaanisqatsi... a film that, without dialogue or narrative structure, produces a unique and intense look at the super structure of modern life.
Koyaanisqatsi lets you experience the acceleration and density of modern society in a new way. It invites you to consider the benevolence of technology and the notion of progess in the world we live in. A world out of balance.
