This is the opening sequence to the film 'Psycho'; 
The opening credits come onto the screen and the test is random being split into bars, which are constantly moving around. Not only is the text unstable and random but the bars are to, sometimes they will split or they will change the direction they come from, this to is changing all the time through out the sequence. This could then reflect on the split personality that the main character has. The music is very dramatic, it seems as if its trying to keep up with the patterns with the high pitched pluck of a string instrument one moment then a very low pitch pluck the next. It gives the feeling of suspense as the music is very unpredictable on what it will play like next.
