The two paintings at 1:27 are by Syd Mead. He was commissioned by NASA to do crazy awesome paintings in the 60's and 70's.

yes I am a scoff artist, der.

Never considered this as an art, more as a talent. Don't get me wrong, it may be hard to do but it's still doesn't impress me...kind of like pen spinning or yo-yo play.

Now Syd Mead on the other hand...that type of realism from inside his very own cranium is, to me, art.
