Silence.



Silence is the new conversation.
This is what I believe in my whole life. People think that the only way to have a connection or conversation with other person is through words. Talk much. So other will hear you.
The fact is, silence is a conversation too.
Have you try to have a silent moment? Listen to the sounds of nature? Pay attention to someone's expression? Have a chit-chat with yourself in your heart?

Sigur Rós' new video 'Rembihnútur' will tell us what is the beautiful of the silence.
Watch it, and feel it.
You will know that the video is trying to deliver something to us only through the moving pictures.

Fyi, I cry every time I watch this video. It feels like I can feel the pain, and desperation of these people in this video.
I cry, even I don't know what Jonsi (the vocalist) sings in this song.
I don't even understand what the lyrics mean.
But I do feel it through the collaboration of pictures and music.

The fourth video in Sigur Rós’s ongoing Valtari Mystery Film Experiment – the project where various filmmakers were given an open brief to make a video for a song from the new album – is by the band’s longtime collaborators and fellow countrymen Arni and Kinski.

“For the last twelve years meditation has been a way of life for us. Going within, releasing emotions, moving through negativity, judgment, discouragement, and the fears that are so often in the mind. Being able to move from the mind into the heart. This is what the music of Sigur Rós helps us to do and we use it as a tool in our meditation.
In meditation we are able to feel and move through our emotions allowing us to drop deeper within our hearts. From this depth of heart we are finding more acceptance, compassion, love, gratitude, passion, clarity, intuitive thinking and much much more. We hope this video will inspire you to do your part in elevating the consciousness of the planet in whatever way that may be.”
Peace and love, Arni & Kinski.


Well done, Sigur Rós. You have made it again.
