Spiral16 – Draft Spiral Video

by Eric Melin on September 29, 2008

This was an experiment for me to find visuals that already exist that have relevance to S16 and Spark.

[MEDIA=aa2b6ecb]What I didn’t know at the time is that the music is relevant to what we are doing and why we are called Spiral16. I didn’t make the connection until I was digging deeper into the music and Fibonacci numbers.

The music (just 25 seconds of it) is Tool’s song Lateralus. Here is a little more from Wikipedia:

The band puts an emphasis on the sound of their songs and attempts to reduce the effect lyrics can have on the perception of songs by not releasing song lyrics with any album. Lyrical arrangements are often given special attention, such as in “Lateralus”. The number of syllables per line in the lyrics to “Lateralus” correspond to an arrangement of the Fibonacci numbers and in “Jambi” the metrical foot iamb is used.

So, it’s not going to show up on Unexplained Mysteries or Believe It Or Not it’s one of those strange things that helped me find a hidden connection.
