• Comments: Symphony of Science assembled clips of Carl Sagan's dialog from the TV show Nova, then used autotune to create a song. I wanted to create a video that mirrored the uplifting message of the song, using anime that carried the same message.
  
  
  I'm not very good at singing songs, but here is a try.
  
  If you wish to make an apple pie from scratch
  You must first invent the universe
  
  Space is filled with a network of wormholes
  You might emerge somewhere else in space
  Some when-else in time
  
  The sky calls to us
  If we do not destroy ourselves
  We will one day venture to the stars
  
  A still more glorious dawn awaits
  Not a sunrise, but a galaxy rise
  A morning filled with 400 billion suns
  The rising of the Milky Way
  
  The cosmos is full beyond measure of elegant truths
  Of exquisite interrelationships
  Of the awesome machinery of nature
  
  I believe our future depends powerfully
  On how well we understand this cosmos
  In which we float like a mote of dust
  In the morning sky
  
  But the brain does much more than just recollect
  It inter-compares, it synthesizes, it analyzes
  it generates abstractions
  
  The simplest thought like the concept of the number one
  Has an elaborate logical underpinning
  The brain has its own language
  For testing the structure and consistency of the world
  
  A still more glorious dawn awaits
  Not a sunrise, but a galaxy rise
  A morning filled with 400 billion suns
  The rising of the Milky Way
  
  The sky calls to us
  If we do not destroy ourselves
  We will one day venture to the stars
  
  For thousands of years
  People have wondered about the universe
  Did it stretch out forever
  Or was there a limit
  
  From the Big Bang to black holes
  From dark matter to a possible big crunch
  Our image of the universe today
  Is full of strange sounding ideas
  
  How lucky we are to live in this time
  The first moment in human history
  When we are in fact visiting other worlds
  
  A still more glorious dawn awaits
  Not a sunrise, but a galaxy rise
  A morning filled with 400 billion suns
  The rising of the Milky Way
  
  A still more glorious dawn awaits
  Not a sunrise, but a galaxy rise
  A morning filled with 400 billion suns
  The rising of the Milky Way
  
  The surface of the Earth is the shore of the cosmic ocean
  Recently we've waded a little way out
  And the water seems inviting
