I really dig that.
YouTube - Star Wars vs. Saul Bass
If Star Wars was filmed two decades earlier and Saul Bass did the opening title sequence, it “might” look like this… This was part of a school project. The song is “Machine” by the Buddy Rich Band off the album Big Swing Face (1967).

I’ve only read and enjoyed a few of these. Some sound interesting. Some just sound… weird.
Must Read: The Twenty Science Fiction Novels that Will Change Your Life
Wizard (1979), by John Varley
A schizophrenic man falls in love with a centaur who has three sets of
genitals and lives inside a giant cyborg in orbit around Saturn. You
want to change your perspective on the world? This book will do it for
you.
Perdido Street Station (2002), by China Mieville
Set in on a planet where a strange weather system called The Torque periodically destroys the fabric of reality, Perdido Street Station is about a scientist, a man who has lost his wings, a woman with an insect head, and a city full of people whose dreams are being eaten by moths. As the dreamless city slowly goes insane, only the scientist can stop the moths — with the help of a sentient garbage heap and a cross-dimensional spider who loves wordplay. Nothing can truly capture the sublime beauty and weirdness of a Mieville novel. But it might change your life.
