Why?
Instead of taking someone else's work and putting so much effort into it, why not do something original? The whole point about 2001 is that it was groundbreaking. Not just the effects but the way of telling a story, leaving so much to the viewer. In Kubrik's film it was entirely believable, unfortunately your CGI effects are too "sterile" and lack realism.
Bearing in mind your skill and talent, wouldn't it be much more rewarding to do something where people don't feel that they've seen it before? Also, you need to get more in touch with feeling the music when editing.
Apart from that... not bad.
