So, 'Squaring the Circle' is a fascinating dive into the world of Hipgnosis, the design studio behind some of the most memorable album covers of the 70s. Anton Corbijn does a brilliant job weaving together interviews and archival footage, capturing the essence of creativity that defined the era. You really get a sense of the mood – it’s not just about the visuals, but the stories behind them, the personalities of Storm and Po, how they interacted with bands like Pink Floyd. The pacing has a relaxed feel, almost like a jam session; it flows seamlessly between the art and the music. The practical effects used in their designs are a nostalgic nod to a time before digital took over, and that authenticity is refreshing. It’s a thoughtful exploration of artistic collaboration.
