the creator of the film koyaanisqatsi was Godfrey Reggio it took 6 years to make the film was an experimental video it came out in 1983 there was acting in this film and all of the images was about the old and the new for example the cave men pictures in the beginning and the rocket tacking off also with the music it was chanting like cave men did and then moved into classical music so i think that it is about old, new, death and destruction.
another thought about it is to do with pollution like wasting good thing like all of the building being knocked down and all of the people wasting water with every building boarded up so they have nothing.
Also all of the fast and slow images going through live like the mountains and the sand but it has very mellow music in the back ground so even though it is fast the music makes it seam calm same then the rocket blows up even though it is a strong image with calming music.

Nathan, I need you to go deeper into the meanings behind the film. Not just opinion and loose facts. Can you try this again please with more detail on conceptual ideas for the film as well as commenting on the visuals and music.
