String Theory 

Now also available on iTunes, Amazon etc. (links in the description).

I would love to see this on a massive cinema screen

Why does this feel like he recorded pure imagination that just.. makes sense???

The instrumental is what does it this looks and feels like a intro cinematic of a sci-fi movie

I am just leaving this comment here to say this *NEEDS* more attention. Chris spent over 4 years on this, i think it needs the attention it deserves. All I’m saying is this man is extremely talented and he gets barely any attention. If you look at some other people they do content that has no effort put into it and gets over 10,000,000 views. This needs more views, so I ask you all. Please, please share this as much as you can. Because I must admit, this is better than a sci-fi Pixar film!

i just started studying physics and I actually understood some of the visualizations, im mind blown in every way

honestly, if i worked 4 years to make something like this, and it got only 14k views, then i'd give up on everything. this is one of the most beautiful things i have ever seen, and it deserves at least 1 million views. it really makes me sad that this doesnt get the attention it should. you really gotta try to share this further, i wanna see it hit 1 million views at some point! Edit: I see some people say that this is a wrong way to think, and in hindsight, idk why I wrote the comment like that; I wanted to emphasize how this video deserves more attention, not say that anyone should give up when hard work doesn't immediately pay off (or at least that's what I'd say today).

This has so little views it's unfair. This has become my favorite video on RU-vid no joke. The soundtrack is excellent but animation is also godly

this could easily make it into a high production movie. absolutely phenomenal work

This is like Animusic, but way more cinematic and high-tech! I'm impressed

My mind is blown, inspired, and upset that I didn't find this masterpiece sooner! Keep up the great work Chris you are a true artist!

This is one of the most astonishing pieces of artwork and music I've seen in ages. In my life, I would like to do just one thing this cool. This needs to be nominated for so many awards. This should be trending on RU-vid. Let's all get the word out and get Mr. Jones here some much deserved recognition!

This is the type of video that should be the intro to some amazing movie, not just a RU-vid video with 60 thousand views.

“Every string was animated” 👐👏👐👏👐👏

This is honestly movie score-level. So rich and layered; classical and modern all at once. Bravo, my dude.

I spent my whole life creating music, and this vfx artist created a masterpiece I would never be able to think about composing. Wow.

I like how it eventually zooms out to a galaxy/black hole at the end, showing how every part of the universe is made of "strings."

ever noticed how hans zimmer been quiet since this dropped?

This man making universe

This is a true experience. It exceeds in all facets that it includes. I can't even imagine what any of this would look like while it was being made its just mind blowing. This is something everyone should see.

This is literally art, and there was not a word spoken

The 14 people who disliked probably thought that these were the answers to their science test

The man. The myth. The legend returns

Not that ive experienced it personally but this is pretty much what I imagine people who have 'synesthesia' experience when they listen to music. This is such a beautiful piece of media

4 years' worth of effort was put into this. This isn't just impressive, it's a true achievement in independent artistry.

This is probably one of the most beautiful and smartly executed pieces of music that I’ve ever heard. Why am I just now hearing it

This held my attention from the first moment till the last, brilliant artistry on everything, music, camera, concepts, everything is working here.

That moment when you see an upload from one of the channels you forgot you were subscribed to. It's special

How this doesn't have at least 10M views blows my mind, it's quite rare to find something with this level of quality on yt

Since release i always come back to see this underrated masterpiece

NOOO I CAN'T BELIEVE IT YOU FINISHED THE ED SOUNDTRACK!! I'm so happy I love your work so much!

This could be at the end credits of a high end movie

This is so underrated i mean he even did the music

Imagine waiting A YEAR to render a video...Truly mind blown blowing

As someone that loves physics and science in general this is awesome.

Bruh, it's been 4 years. Edit: Wow. Just when I expected it to end, it just kept coming. Good render!

This gives off the same feeling as Willy Wonka's intro Except stringy

This looks like a real passion project you had. Sick animations and music dude! Loved it. And the camera work is amazing too. It gave me butterflies in my stomack at some point. Also, what do you use to make the music? I'm very curious.

This NEEDS to be rerendered at 8k 60FPS and then the raw file needs to be available somewhere. RU-vid compression is NOT having it with this video even at 4K. Absolute masterpiece!

I get chills every second of this whole video. I'm practically hypnotized.

When some people ask you to release the full version of your music, so instead you visualize a theoretical framework in the most satisfactory way AND give them the full version of your music.

Everyone in the comments. REMEMBER ME! More music videos like these should exist. This is award winning!

This oddly feels like a bunch of battle hungry gods fighting in "space", or a plane of existence we don't understand. 3:09 alone feels like two entities racing across the multiverse in unfathomable speeds, fueled by uncontested rage and lust for destruction. When they both collide at 3:23 it gives of a celestial explosion feel but far greater in magnitude than any star could produce, to properly describe it is "The largest blackhole known to man exploding". The best part is it that continues to make a different story in my mind at 3:52 but is still connected to the latter; after said destructive impact of the two gods/celestial beings the inhabitants or what remained of them rush to escape the rotting part of that area in search of a new place to call their own. Most of them didn't make it. At 4:40 it gives off the impression that whatever being created this universe saw the destruction and wanted to create someone or something to rectify the destruction by making new places for lesser beings to live in and destroy those wreaking havoc among their universe. The seemingly unstable but powerful dot at 5:31 is the creation intended to bring order and it makes it's presence known at 5:42 by making a new galaxy or something akin to those lines. Then the "lawbringer" goes to chase the other things causing destruction in their universe at 6:31, destroying them all.

This video seriously needs more attention.

Holy crap THIS IS THE 👏 MOST 👏 UNDERRATED 👏 VIDEO 👏 EVER 👏

The blue light racer dot is unarguably the best protaganist in any movie I have ever watched.

I still don't understand why this work of supreme art has not hit the trends and has not received millions of views around the world. This masterpiece definitely deserves more attention. I've been watching this video countless times, and I don't get bored. These 7 minutes pass like 3, honestly

I've been making music for a long time and I can't even imagine making something a fraction as complex and cinematic sounding as this. The fact that you not only did the music but also the visuals just completely blows my mind. Amazing ✌🏽

This should be played on 4k TVs in the stores everywhere. And I would just watch it on repeat.

Pure combination of the most beautiful audiovisual art, the feeling of a tear and a smile when galaxies collapse when you close your eyes... It's the best video I've seen in more than a year, brutal.

Winamp visualizations on steroids! Good work, mate!

I just got this in my suggestions, and it's... truly fantastic. It's so visceral. The camera unsteadiness, the dust, the DOF, the motion blur... but the soundtrack... oh my god... It's been a while since I was so immersed.

This is and will remain my favorite video of all time. Every time I watch it I’m mesmerized as it takes me onto a whole journey! It’s almost rude to call this a video instead of a masterpiece.

Friend: you can't see music Me:

I remember when this dropped I was like "this is so gonna blow up" 350k views is not enough. this should have at least 10 mil by now

I was lost in this musical universe

anyone still coming back to this in 2024???

This would be cool for a movie intro! YESSS

I constantly come here just to listen and enjoy this masterpiece journey. I'm so glad to have discovered this early and enjoy it for many years and Its great to see the comments filled with people who are equally as blown away as I was when I first watched it and I still am.

Swiss watch companies employ 20 master watch makers to build 1 watch meticulously and sell for $250,000. Chris Jones single handedly spent 4 years making this creative piece of work and we get to watch it for FREE. It's not fair for someone like Chris but I'm glad we have the chance to experience his work.

Truly a visual and musical marriage of perfection. Love it!

this feels like the spider Man movie intro... this is legitimately REALLY good and awesome to see!

Omg.................AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a lack of words to express the emotions this induces in me. This deserves to be remembered as one of the masterpieces of our time.

03:25 is sooo beautifully animated!!

this is the most beautiful visual representation of music ive ever seen its so accurate. i myself draw how i see notes and feel music but can never get it quite this is perfect

This was created in over 4-year period. Let that sink in. Holy sht

This needs to be screened in a movie theater

magic. This is one of those rare videos that I watch with awe and wonder "how did the artist even do this." pure magic.

This man doesn't cease to blow me away every time. I've listened to this song so many times now and it never gets old. I'm incredibly impressed with this man's musical talent, especially being a music artist myself I can feel the sheer amount of blood sweat and tears put into making this song. This deserves so much more attention than it's getting. Keep up the good work

This is too underrated. I’m mesmerized

Imagine there's whole another universe inside every quarks of every proton and we can never see how that universe looks in our entire human but this video interprets it exactly.

This person deserves at *LEAST* 100 million subscribers.

Somebody did his homework! I love how the strings are vibrating in different modes, tracing different geometries. I'm so impressed by this composition, and the visuals are stunning. Amazing work.

This... this right here is one of the greatest videos i've ever seen on this platform, and the fact the doesn't have over 1 million views makes me wonder what other masterpieces are out there waiting to be viewed.

They need this guy to design a doctor who intro.

Oh my god, this is actually one of the most beautiful and emotional videos I’ve ever seen-

Damn cool surprise. Loved "ed" soundtrack and here it is a extended version. Kind of a genius this guy

One of the most amazing things I've ever seen....

This video just gives me hope in the brilliance of the human mind, it will always be there.

You are a master. I have no idea how you did this.

Man it took him 4 years to make this and it only haves that amount of views and likes. This should be his most popular video. Respect for taking so much time to make videos for his fans 👍

I didn't know I needed this. My brain was just reset.

How? how does this not have more views? Watching this took me on an insane journey.

If I spent 4 years making something like this.. And wasn’t viral.. I would probably cry and just give up- Props to you

Incredible sounds and visuals. Pioneering no doubt. Godlike.

This is undoubtedly the best piece of music i have heard in the last 5 years. Jaw dropping. This is deserves to be the opening song to a cinematic masterpiece

Idk man i just keep coming back to this magnificent work.

My friend that must be one of the most beautiful CGI footage I haver seen. The fact that this was done by one person blows my mind. I was just sitting in front of my screen with open mouth getting blown away multiple times. You deserve so much more!!! I will share!

Nobody The dreams of X Æ A-12:

my mind won't be the same again, so beautiful

This is the type of video to be recommended 6 years later in everyones recommended.

AWESOMENESS at it's best. Ed is real and this is his journey through digital space. :D

this is seriously underrated, this is like something you'd see at the beginning of a very high budget movie

Underrated on an extreme level

We Love You Chris Jones ❤‍🔥❤❤‍🔥

This could be 10 Hours long and I'd watch it ll the way through. This is amazing!

damn one of the best 7 mins of my youtube time 5000/10

this is under 100k views??it might not be the most interesting to some, but holy more need to know about this beauty

My mind is absolutely and completely blown. Whooooooooa. So freaking amazing. What composing and VFX tallent!!!
