Someone recently went to Japan with his girlfriend; he then threw all of his pictures into a machine-gun style slide show set to an LCD Soundsystem song. You don't get to see the details of each picture before it flashes to the next one, and the result is a really cool gestalt of the trip. The speed made me a bit emotional because it felt like I relived my 2 week visit last April in just a few minutes. This is just lovely, take a look.

Japan in nearly 8 minutes.
This one will be short and sweet. A few days ago, my friend Ed passed along this video to me:

ReplyDeletevery nice!
ReplyDeletei go through very heavy waves of nostalgia for japan. it's amazing how much of an attachment and appreciation we develop for a place after we've left.
ReplyDeleteAmazingly done. I've never been to Japan but have always wanted to!
ReplyDeleteAwesome. Reminds me of the scene from Rules of Attraction. I've always wanted to do something like that..

Hey, have you ever seen Sans Soleil? If you love Tokyo and arty elliptical docs, then it's a must-see. Directed by Chris Marker, and just about the baddest travelogue film ever.
ReplyDeletealso I did something once called "the year in walls." similar concept, though not as focused.
thanks for sharing this.
I love this <3 Definitely sparked some forgotten memories about Japan. I'd love to make my own (shorter perhaps) but none of my software is behaving right.
