Ok, maybe slightly, but certainly not as it was presented here.

Even a static filter is CGI…it’s a computer (phone) filter generating an image. It’s exactly what I think of when I think of “effects” for digital photography or videos….what does it mean to you? Since it’s “computer” drawn moving images, it’s animation, no?

Why? Art.
Why would Van Gogh paint swirling stars in “starry night”?
Why would Cyriak dismember a million digital sheep to reform them into nightmare creatures?

The MoMA carved van Gogh’s The Starry Night into a pumpkin

Yea Starry Night will kill anybody's creativity or wonder...

This is pretty much exactly the same as this: http://www.videosift.com/video/Starry-Starry-Night-Vincent-Van-Gogh

Van Gogh's paintings set to this song. I guess we need two. Quality control.

All fixed up my friend.

My God, this is just beautiful. Here are the lyrics:

Starry, starry night
Paint your palette blue and gray
Look out on a summer's day
With eyes that know the darkness in my soul
Shadows on the hills
Sketch the trees and the daffodils
Catch the breeze and the winter chills
In colors on the snowy linen land

Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now

Starry, starry night
Flaming flowers that brightly blaze
Swirling clouds in violet haze
Reflecting Vincent's eyes of China blue
Colors changing hue
Morning fields of amber grain
Weathered faces lined in pain
Are soothed beneath the artist's loving hands

Now I understand
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen they did not know how
Perhaps they'll listen now

For they could not love you
But still your love was true
And when no hope was left inside
On that starry, starry night
You took your life as lovers often do
But I could have told you Vincent
This world was never meant for one as
beautiful as you

Starry, starry night
Portraits hung in empty halls
Frameless heads on nameless walls
With eyes that watch the world and can't forget
Like the strangers that you've met
The ragged men in ragged clothes
A silver thorn on a bloody rose
Lie crushed and broken on the virgin snow

Now I think I know
What you tried to say to me
How you suffered for your sanity
How you tried to set them free
They would not listen they're not listening still
Perhaps they never will

I agree with farhad regarding the einsteinian sense of religion or spirituality.

It is a sad day indeed for mankind when we lose our astonishment, awe, and reverent appreciation for the absolutely stunning universe we find ourselves in. This awe and wonder is absolutely crucial to scientific endeavour, IMO. It would be fine to do away with the supernatural sorts of religions, but leave us at least the beauty and grandeur of a starry night sky, a beautiful vista, or the elegance of say, maxwell's equations.

We don't need a supernatural religion, but we do need a natural spirituality. Otherwise, why even bother doing science?

Get a big image of the Starry Night by Van Gogh and look at it after watching the video. I did it with a poster of mine and it was beautiful, hopefully it works with the image on the following link
