Stephen Hawking wearing Orbital glasses and doing vocals with P&P at the Paralympics opening ceremony - So unexpected and so awesome! :D

It's available on iTunes on the album "Enlightment" for download right now.

It's Orbital's mix of Where Is It Going? and Ian Dury's Spacticus Austisticus with some Stephen Hawkins quotes sampled in.

It's pretty awesome.

Here's a (bad) vid:

Who was actually responsible for putting that all together?

Thank you so much Hartnolls, FYI the term Spasticus as in "I am Spasticus" is being adopted by common choice among the disabled people fighting this heinous government.
The "I am Spartacus" movement had some success in raising the crimes of ATOS but unfortunately, as is the case with the disabled, a few of the prime movers have since died and others are deteriorating in health. I will link to the Vids of the night but it would be good to have a link to download that version. Is there one?
