Cool! Great use of vocals too in the original.

Saw the video a while ago, genuinely so incredibly impressed people recognize those samples when they're pretty cut and distorted.
On the other hand, I occasionally recognize a sample straight away despite being super obscure, so yeah :p

In his live stream, Jarre compared Zoolook to Oxymore:

"The Zoolook album is one of my favourite albums of mine, something very special, it's different from the others ones, probably the closest album, ironically is my most recent album Oxymore. I would say that Oxymore has a kind of link, it's quite close to Zoolook in terms of using an electoacustic approach, electroacustic approach is like muque concrete, using organic sounds, recording of some live, organic sounds to create your arrengement and orchestration."

"I really wanted to do an album with vocals, but not with lyrics. The idea was actually to create an album using vocals as sounds, not for the meaning of the voices, but for their sonic or audio characters."
"This is the reason why I said Oxymore is quite close, because for Oxymore, as you know, I used some organic sounds from Pierre Henry and also my own organic sounds mixed with with electronic sounds from synthesizers, so in that aspect there is a link between the albums."

I was listening to the English audio commentary of the China 2004 concert when he mentioned something interesting about the Zoolookologie video. At first he wanted Andy Warhol to direct the video, but at that time he was quite ill already. Could have been interesting.

Not sure if this is the original vinyl (it does have the original Zoolookologie) but I found this:
