Omega Point, A/V Synching?

Rereading KDK12’s post about his “The Shining: Forwards and Backwards” synchronicity, perhaps the most important audiovisual synching find since “Dark Side of the Rainbow” and its less known sidekick “2001-Echoes” from the 1990s.

It seems a new development, a “Dark Side of the Rainbow” for the 21st Century as I’ve seen it called in one source.

Here’s a 15 minute excerpt of its middle part again:

I was going to select a handful of KDK12’s screen captures of the synch for further comments, but, heck, the whole thing looks fantastic. Next step: make my own god damn copy!

To add to this, KDK12 and others have been inspired by the incredible depth of The Shining to make more movie-movie overlaps, mini-synchs in and of themselves all, if shorter and giving more the appearance of “collage studies” than full blown works of art like “The Shining: Forwards and Backwards” (and the earlier “Dark Side of the Rainbow”).

I’ve seen versions of this one on several sites (overlap of end of The Shining with end of 2001: A Space Odyssey):

KDK12 himself has a number of others posted here:
