RE: There's so much energy in us! - IFC S2R1 - A tribute to Cloud Cult
That was really awesome.. I didn't know what to expect at first.. And I was surprised in a good way. The music is great, it really hit me deep. The last song even made me a lil emotional, really vibed with the lyrics and all of the songs have an excellent spacey futuristic feel to them.
I also really appreciated your own storyline that you added.. This part really made me think..
The issue isn't good vs. evil nor life vs. death, its really life vs. entropy. Life traps energy in a loop, a life loop in this case instead of a time loop. The energy passes from living thing to living thing, never succumbing to entropy all the while it is being torn apart by entropy! It is said that no combination of forces can put humpty dumpty back together again, but life has provided us with living, egg making machines.
Deeeeep.. Still pondering it, though I think I sorta get it.. Reminds me of that quote or scientific idea that.. "Nothing is destroyed it just changes form" whether true or not and how anyone can prove that 100% I don't know, but that saying has meant a lot to me for a long time and I'd like to think it's true.
My only real critique is this part.
It is unknown 'how long' we have been travelling, if time has any meaning at all out here. Back on Earth, hundreds of years may have passed, but we have been traveling at such velocities where time is harder to measure.
I assume you were creating a sort of short story about our IFC world? If so, our old planet was called Digita, not Earth. But.. You're new and I didn't mention that in the first season post so the only way you could have known is if you were around for the first season and remembered it.
Major props.. You just made my voting for this round much for difficult to pick, lol. Thanks though, this entry was very meaningful and powerful for me in a way I can explain or properly describe because of personal stuff going on in my life. Excellent first entry into the contest and I'm glad you joined us. :) Even if for just one round, but I hope to see you around more in the future! Cheers! <3
Thank you for this detailed response! I have edited our planet name to Digita!
I think you'll see me again :)
You're welcome! And glad to hear that we'll hopefully see you again. :) Your entry was superb and also the surprise you told me about on discord the other day was awesome to hear as well! Cheers man!
