The quasi timelapse come stop motion that spawned a million (O.K a million might be slightly over stating it but....) copies and like any mold from which others are case and will for eternally be compared to, for very good reason. Two words, mind blown. Some derided the fact that it was commissioned by Levi's Jeans [link]. Somehow that devalued the ragtag artistic efforts of the six guys hauled up in a RV on a14 day cross country roadtrip of personal discovery, I beg to differ. I don't really care how art (you know, that thing that makes you stop, think/ponder and in the process alters in some way you look at the world (of which this video is an example)) gets financed whether it's an arts patron, that happens to be CEO of BP, or BP just short circuiting the whole redistribution of wealth, as long as it's not via you know say the proceeds of blood diamonds from Angola.
