5.0 out of 5 stars Amazingly creative film about Pythagoras!, September 28, 2007
This review is from: *STAR CYCLES Educational DVD (Amazon Instant Video)
Star Cycles is a great educational movie that is not your typical "Nova" documentary... it is an artistic film that presents Pythagoras as one of the greatest heroes in history. The original music and geometric animation are syncronized to provide a backdrop for the detailed information presentated in each of 10 segments. While the presentation is perhaps unorthodox, the movie holds up well on repeated viewings that reveal more and more each time it is seen. I was amazed how little I knew about Pythagoras and his contribution to not just mathematics, but more importantly, to the world of music. The octave is a Pythagorean construct that scientifically proves the harmony of the Universe, the music of the spheres.

2.0 out of 5 stars It was....ok...sort of., September 16, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: *STAR CYCLES Educational DVD (Amazon Instant Video)
It was a bit dry. There was a lot of info, but the visuals and music were distracting to the point that I had to go back and force myself to listen to the guy so I could actually understand what he was talking about. Why should I believe this guy? Where were the expert interviews?
