Sense8 opening

21 Nov

The Wachowski sisters (formerly known as the Wachowski brothers) recently stunned viewers with their dazzling sci-fi series Sense8. The series is indeed very recommended if you are into sci-fi and superpowers and the manichean drama, but one of the parts I liked best about is actually the opening. I always find that there is something extremely psychedelic about looking at the earth from a global perspective looking at people across the entire universe and getting a perspective on life in its manifold forms as it gushes around the planet, and this is exactly what the Sense8 opening does.
