Microcosmos (film)

__NOTOC__ Microcosmos (original title Microcosmos : Le peuple de l'herbe — Microcosmos: The grass people) is a 1996 documentary film by Claude Nuridsany and Marie Pérennou and produced by Jacques Perrin. Set to the music of Bruno Coulais, this film is primarily a record of detailed interactions between insects and other small invertebrates.

The film was screened out of competition at the 1996 Cannes Film Festival.

Scenes from the film were used in the music video for the single "You Don't Love Me (Like You Used to Do)" from The Philosopher Kings' album Famous, Rich and Beautiful.

Microcosmos (Drudkh album)

Microcosmos is the seventh album by Ukrainian black metal band Drudkh, released on June 22 (July 14 in US), 2009. It has released as a CD digipack (unlimited) and as a box set (limited to 500 copies) by Season of Mist, under the label Underground Activists.

In this album, the band continues using lyrics from Ukrainian poets, like Ivan Franko on "Distant Cries of Cranes", Oleh Olzhych on "Decadence", or Bohdan Rubchak on "Ars Poetica".

The last track ("Widow's Grief") is taken from the soundtrack of the Ukrainian movie Atentat (1995), like the intro on the previous album Estrangement ("Solitary Endless Path"). The film is about the life and assassination of Stepan Bandera, leader of Ukrainian Insurgent Army, a Ukrainian partisan nationalist group during and after World War II.

The album was praised by critics: it was ranked 11 in Terrorizer Top 40 Albums of 2009 and 3 in Top 30 Metal Albums of 2009 by Haunting the Chapel, the Stereogum heavy music section.

Microcosmos (Thy Catafalque album)

Microcosmos is the second full-length release from Hungarian avant-garde metal group Thy Catafalque. It was also the last to represent the older, raw black metal sound of the band. Their first music video was made for the song "Paths Untrodden".

In fact, although the size of a typical string is the Planck length, if we pumped enough energy into a string—an amount of energy beyond our wildest imaginings but one that would likely have been attained by the big bang—we could cause it to grow to a macroscopic size, a clumsy probe of the microcosmos indeed!
