Cool video, I'm at 11 min now and it keeps getting better. Seems like it would be tremendous as a piece of video art you sit and watch at a museum, while really high on weed...

Had a friend in a past life who was really into the minimalists.

I think Steve Reich is my favorite but plenty of respect and admiration for Riley and Glass.

You nailed it, I'm pretty sure it's from or at least archived in a museum actually. It's so crazy to me that this is from the 60's. This is how I want my music to sound TODAY.

Hmmm I imagine that had I been a musician I would be trying to make music that is minimalist but also a bit more goth. Goth minimalism is not a bad way of describing my taste in music (I'm a postpunk obsessive).

Btw I recently listened to his album with John Cale. Uneven but when it's good it's really good.
