This 60 minutes wake-up call to the world reaches the public as a global peace prayer. It addresses as serious human rights issues the freedom to dance at trance parties and the right to get high.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

If you are sensible human being with a free and elevated conscience, you will understand this film, you will not listen the guy who commented before me because he ha a negative vision of everything and his mind is closed for any kind of external communication.So the film, firstly good visual effects, animations, editing etc. but what is interesting that is appearance of most eminent people in psychedelic culture, Alex Grey,Simon Bosford,Raja Ram,Goa Gil...etc. In it's own form the film is a documentary about psychedelics, music, trance, tripping, meditating, getting your conscience larger and comprehensively and of course about, Dance Trance and Magical Plants. Watch it and make your own opinion BOOM SHANKAR

Liquid Crystal Vision is an unique kind of multimedia experience and a good reminder of the ideas behind the goa "movement". It consists essentially of footages mixed with computer-generated 3D "psychedelic" visuals which are extremely well made and not "cheesy" at all. Also, instead of having 3D as the main focus, which can get boring after a while, the computer animations usually act more like an additional layer which follows the movie and makes it psychedelic!In addition to that, there is, of course, the music (made by some of the best psychedelic chillout & goa musicians like Shpongle) and the exclusive interviews featuring System 7, Raja Ram, Goa Gil, Youth, Swami, Alex Grey and others, all very interesting, especially for those interested in consciousness and psychedelics. Just like for 3D, the interviews are almost always mixed with the footages, which often results in 3 layers of visuals on the screen and, surprisingly, it doesn't look too messy.A part of the interviews is dedicated to the "role" of music and visuals and will surely interests VJs looking for inspiration. Ideas like language of creation, sensory experience, understandable package, music visualization, mystical frequencies will provide good food for thoughts for what the future of "VJing" (in the broad sense of the word) may look like, working eventually as a role of unification between image, sound and other senses (as we can already see with "VJs" experimenting with sensors, body movement, etc.)The exclusive film footages have been taken all around the world, in India, UK, Portugal, Cambodia, Lao, Himalaya and of course at the famed Burning Man festival. Dancers, fire breathers and mystics can be seen all the time, as well as some beautiful landscapes which are really well filmed. It sometimes reminds of Baraka although Liquid Crystal Vision is a lot less static. It is more concerned by movement.This is also the first "documentary" I have ever seen which didn't bore me at one point or another. The whole one hour and an half flows right in the brain thanks to the perfect mix between images and sound. Interviews never really cut this flow either. Instead, the interview video is merged with psychedelic visuals and images of people dancing and the voice continues in rhythm with the goa music in the background. A reviewer at the back of the DVD compares this to being "lifted up as on a wave and carried". A possibly interesting application of "VJing"?Anyway no matter how you look at it, this is a fantastic movie and no one should miss it. The DVD or VHS can be ordered from the website and it can even be viewed online if you can't wait anymore ;)
