Be Blown Away by 500 People in 100 Seconds
Eran Amir's stop-action slice of humanity has someone for everyone.
August 25, 2011
Eran Amir traveled throughout Israel and persuaded 500 people to have their photographs taken. Each of the people who posed for Amir's camera held a photograph at chest level. When the photos, and the photos within the photos, are paginated and presented at the rate of five per second, magic happens. Twice.
Set aside a little less than two minutes, and be dazzled by what people can do when they stand still for a minute and cooperate.
Thanks to Dangerous Minds for the tip.
