This is very very cool.

I agree, most festive!

Very cool indeed, although I felt it was disjointed. The various parts did not make up or reinforce a more complete "whole".

I think it could have been even more interesting if all the cameras had been focused on one subject that was seen from various points of view; so that each video would have fed off of or into the others and thereby creating a greater whole from the various parts.

Just to use pigeons as an example, the artist could have set up a camera to film pigeons from overhead (say from a helicopter or tall building), another camera at a person's foot level, another at a person's eye level and another camera attached to a pigeon.

I thought the medium was far cooler than the message.

If they had filmed the one subject (ie pidgeons) you wouldn't have been able to start any of the film clips at any time.

I thought the sounds did converge into a cohesive immersion, and it was fun to try out various combos before unleashing all of them at once.

So, why is it that after I watched it and closed the browser, it is still playing?

It's a classic, and I'm sure it's been posted here before, but if you haven't seen it - Pickle Surprise

Awesome! I immediately took to turning videos on and off, mixing sounds, and it all sounded lovely.

WOOF!

Are you open minded?
