Temporal Distortion

(vimeo link)

You've seen time-lapse videos of the night sky here before, but this one is particularly beautiful, awe-inspiring, and soothing. It's even more impressive in full-screen mode. Randy Halverson shot the scenes in South Dakota, Utah, Colorado, and Wisconsin. You have to get way out beyond the light pollution to see the stars this way! The music was specially composed for the project by Bear McCreary, who does the music for the TV shows The Walking Dead, Battlestar Galactica, and more. You can learn more about the video at Halverson's website. Link -via Geeks Are Sexy
