THE INSANITY OF VIDEO MAPPING ANIMATION STRIKES AGAIN. While I was living in Prague I brought countless visiting friends to see this clock, which is a huge tourist attraction. Throngs gather every hour to watch the overrated and dinky display (though it is impressive given that it’s 600 years old). These guys just made it 1000% better.

Legend has it, actually, that the 15th century Prague city council was so pleased with the clock that they hired goons to break into the designer’s house and gouge out his eyes so that he would never make anything so beautiful in any other city again.

Stop What You’re Doing And Watch The Hell Out Of This of the Day: To mark the 600th anniversary of Prague’s preposterously complex Astronomical Clock, video mapping specialists The Macula, aided by Lukáš Duběda and Michal Kotek, projected a stunning 10-minute-long animation against the clock’s facade.

    While I realize 10 minutes is fairly long, you should still watch this. Also, I feel like I want to learn Prague history...
