Ripple - a short film by Connor Griffith. "It's a flurry of frame-by-frame images, mostly from Google Earth and Wikipedia, that depict the many developed and undeveloped surfaces on the planet." - the Atlantic.
I kind of felt like my brain was going to explode at the microchip part (or was that a microprocessor?). Very neat, wild video. Thanks for sharing!
