Neat piece of Net art

http://www.thewildernessdowntown.com/

It's been around for a few months, but I've only just come across it. I found it surprisingly moving.

P.S. You'll need Chrome to view it. Some very cool HTML5 going on there.

P.P.S. It's got flocks of boids! The signature of all great art :-)

I t was sad for me -- My childhood home(s) in Los Alamos burned down in the Cerro Grande fire of 2000. The video shows a wasteland of burned forest around where my home used to be.

I experienced a similar emotion Doug: my childhood home used to be a isolated Victorian house surrounded by fields and woodland. Now the fields are gone and it's surrounded by cookie-cutter suburban houses.
