    When I decided to make the movie, I took VittorioStoraro to see a X exhibition. I showed him thepaintings, explaining that this was the kind ofthing I wanted to use as my inspiration. Theorange hues in the film are directly influencedby X. says director ofX.

    I then took (not required) to see the sameexhibition, and I showed him the paintings. I said

    to (not required) , you see that painting? Well, Iwant you to re-create that same intense pain.That was virtually the only direction I gave himon the film.

    It is hard to imagine a more appropriately titled piece of music than X sologuitar showcase, Y. When the wildly innovative instrumental was releasedin 1978, hit the rock guitar community like a hydrogen bomb. Two-handedtapping, gonzo whammy bar dips, artificial harmonicswith Xs masterlyapplication of these and other techniques, it made every other six-stringer

    look like a third-stringer. But the most remarkable thing, perhaps, about the unaccompanied solo is

    that it almost didnt make it on the guitarists debut album. The storybehind Y is that while we were recording the album, (not required) showedup at the studio early one day and started to warm up because (notrequired) had a gig on the weekend and wanted to practice his solo-guitarspot. The producer, Ted Templeman, happened to walk by and he asked,Whats that? Lets put it on tape!

    As for the distinctive echo effect on the track, a relatively obscure unitaUnivox echo chamber was used. It had a miniature 8-track cassette in it,and the way it would adjust the rate of repeat was by the speed of themotor, not by tape heads. So, if something was recorded on tape, thefaster the motor back was played, the faster it would repeat and vice versa.

    The music video, created by Hammer & Tongs, shows a depiction of the processof evolution condensed into three and a half minutes. The beginning of the musicvideo is set "350 billion years ago", and starts with a single cell organism in theocean evolving into a jellyfish, a puffer fish, and then a predatory fish. It managesto eat a smaller fish before leaping up onto dry land. With a dinosaur visible in thebackground and an insect in front, it stays still for a few seconds before setting

    off and eating the insect. The land-fish evolves into a small alligator as it enters a forest. It sees a tall tree,

    which it climbs up. Its hands are visibly evolving until it arrives at the top asa homo erectus-like ape. It jumps from the tree into an icy landscape, enduringa blizzard as it evolves into a larger, gorilla-like ape. At the end of a large cliff, theape beats its chest as the camera zooms out to show a vast desert.

    The ape jumps onto the ground, where it has evolved into a primate resembling

    an orang-utan. A large storm blows away much of its hair, turning it intoa human. The human runs much faster and puts on some trousers and a shirt.When fully clothed, it turns into a modern human with a beard. The man walksthrough a city environment and eats some food, at which point he loses thebeard and turns into the obese person. He finally sits down on a bench at night,at which point the video ends with his T-shirt saying 'I'm #1 so why try harder'.

He changed his mind after having read thebooks, even going as far to considering himself "one of the fewchildren who had been deprived of them," and accepted the

    role,narrating the first two series. X did not return when the thirdseries ofY began, citing an interest in focusing on his musicalcareer.
