For those of us stuck on the opposite side of the planet, even better footage of their work than the fan-shot fare we saw in the spring is now being beamed worldwide via YouTube. Below, enjoy a professionally filmed clip from their stunning interpretation of Jupiter. Here’s hoping there are studio recordings in the works:
