Interesting connection to environmental psychology, but I really love the idea of changing the score to see what the effect is. I'll have to think of what other music would fit such a unique movie.

Michael- I'll bite. Our department supports our Environmental Studies major. We team teach the "Nature and Culture" course that every major has to take- this movie makes for an excellent discussion starter! I can also think of direct uses in Environmental Psychology classes (also for discussion) and your mention of the score would also provoke excellent discussions. (For example, play it with the "proper" score and then insert parts with some other "non-fitting" score and look at the differing "meanings" that come from the presentation (Thus it could fit into all kinds of discussions on emotion, visual and audition interactions, etc.). I've used the "shower scene" from the Psycho DVD to the same purpose as you can play it with and without the score. :)

he movie is great and the music was unforgettable.  The movie had a
lot to say about society, but offhand I can't think of any
psychological connection.  Hmm...anybody?

Michael,

The other days I was listening to one of your podcasts and noticed
when you mentioned the film Koyaanisqatsi, which was once one of my
all-time favorites, but I haven't seen it for years. Today I was
messing around on iTunes and noticed that one can download the whole
film from there for a mere $9.99.

Best,
