I took this image
from Dean Karr's (the video's director) Myspace
crop it 100x100
duplicate it twice and set both to screen
duplicate the last layer and change the blend to soft light 36%
Layer >> New fill layer >> Color Burn 100% >> #9096c7
Layer >> New fill layer >> Exclusion 100% >> #012f52
Layer >> New fill layer >> Color burn 100% >> #b2fbfe
