I agree.... a masterpiece

"it is mind-boggling to see this short. It reminds me a little of michel gondry's video for "let forever be" by the chemical brothers. I feel reluctant making this comparison though, in a way, because it is evident that this piece of animation must have taken thousands of hours to produce. i love it. the rendering alone shows a mastery of this obscure medium, pinscreen animation. I still have not been able to find a clip of this piece anywhere on the internet. I saw it on TV on a channel in new york called fine arts showcase. If anyone knows where I could view it again, please..."

Each frame was created using a "pinscreen" made from thousands of pins, which could be scraped and push to alter their depth and shininess.
