Motion Pictures
This is really incredible. The artist, Adam Magyar, filmed the platform at the Shinjiku station in Tokyo in high-speed video as his train pulled in. Then he slowed it down to make an 11-minute, beautiful, moving portrait of all the people standing there. Really great idea. Love the ambient sound, too. Although I could see Philip Glass doing a sombre, Koyaanisqatsi-like soundtrack for this. Needle-deedle-needle-deedle needly-deedly-needly-deedly!

A little disturbing. It looks very futuristic, and yet it is not. i was looking for someone smiling-very hard to find. I guess if you did a similar thing in Toronto, it would be exactly the same. Made me feel sad.
