I think he really could be my favorite artist of all time. I never get tired of looking at his work. I liked the beginning of the song too.

Upvote for art. The music nearly killed me. It sounded like Bjork. I don't even care that it's not Bjork. I don't even care if it didn't sound like Bjork to you. It reminded me of what I think Bjork sounds like. It's creepy. It's, like, cappuccino grunge tripe that you listen to when you want people to think you're cool. Here's the formula: String some inane crap together, poke around on a sequencer when you're hung over and sing with condescending boredom, slurring your words as if in a heroin haze. </wilhelm scream>

I remember he used to throw hand-fulls of dust of different colors into the air (and sometimes other people would photograph it) as a form of highly transient art... just watching the clouds of colored dust float into each other... fun stuff.

The art is nice.
As for silvercord's comments.. I'm surprised that you think that Bjork's music sounds condescendingly bored. I think that one of the major, if not the main, theme expressed in her music (and singing style) is the exhilaration she feels from being alive.

If this man's art was the only reason God breathed life into mankind, it would be enough.

While much of his work is transitory in nature, if you're ever near Mountainville, NY I recommend you visit the Storm King Art Center (http://www.stormking.org/) and see his Storm King Wall and the other great sculptures they have on collection.
