Summary

From the channel description: "2001: A Space Odyssey - The revolutionary filmmaking that went into Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey encapsulates the totality of humanity’s experience, in one film. Jay Dyer and Jay Weidner analyze the occult imagery emblazoned throughout this classic film as we are presented with a tale of humanity’s transformation, from the early days of stone-age culture to the ultimate evolution into a being of light. This is an ancient tale stemming from the dialogs of Plato and carried through the Hermetic traditions. Kubrick may have drawn from these backgrounds, to embed esoteric symbolism in this film, giving us a hint into the alchemical nature of our evolutionary journey."

0:57.4

ever in cinema history and it bears a lot of scrutiny.

1:01.5

Kubrick used an opportunity to make what I consider

1:06.3

to be the first real true esoteric film ever

1:10.1

in the history of cinema and which it details the path

1:14.5

of humanity from our origins, monkey-like origins, all the way up to becoming a star child.

1:20.9

It's a Nietzschean journey and probably the most important journey that our species can take.

1:28.3

And Kubrick has shown this in a visual way, which is why the film is so great.

1:33.3

Very little dialogue, a lot of great visuals.

1:36.3

So in this clip, the monkeys, the apes, the ape's, the eight men from millions of years ago,

1:43.3

first encounter the monolith, the black monolith,

1:47.0

this slab inside their encampment.

1:50.0

And we're about to see the reaction to their first encounter

1:55.0

as we begin to realize that this monolith

is actually passing on viable information to these man apes.
