A visually inspiring and sensory masterpiece - Stanley Kubrick's film 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968). In my opinion, one of the greatest films ever made, 2001: A Space Odyssey is an experience far beyond the time of its release.
A science fiction film that explores themes of human evolution, artificial intelligence and extraterrestrial life.
Scientific realism, pioneering special effects and ambiguous use of special effects creates other-worldly surrealism.
The following are stills from 2001: A Space Odyssey.

The following images are stills from the famous 'Star-gate' sequence showing futuristic and tripped out coloured lights that mesmerise you and almost suck you into the screen. The scene is achieved through split-scan photography of moving images of paintings.
Check out the scene (for some reason - probably because of my amazing technology skills - the clip is smaller in size than actual screen size, so double click on it to view full screen)...
The following images represent that feeling of total immersion... enhanced by the combination of intoxicating brights and textural experimentation that extend this sensory experience into the fashion realm.
