The video has since been viewed more than 200 million times on Facebook and was featured in major media, such as BBC World News. Cosmic Eye was re-released in 2018 in high-resolution landscape (16:9) format and slightly improved graphics that include animated vector elements. The woman at the centre of the film is Louise McKay, a professional cellist from Western Australia. (en)
