bq. “Playing With Time”:http://www.playingwithtime.org/ is an exciting, new project that looks at how the world around you is changing over many different time periods.

bq. Here at the “Playing With Time”:http://www.playingwithtime.org/ web site, unseen worlds of change will be revealed. You will see time sped up and slowed down, and behold the beauty of change.

I have always been intrigued by visualisation techniques; manipulating time is another one. Taking ordinary events and speeding them up or slowing them down often reveals existing patterns that we cannot normally perceive.

“Playing With Time”:http://www.playingwithtime.org/ has both fast motion and slow motion movie clips revealing a variety of changes. I particularly like the shots of the same location on several different time scales; you can watch the clouds move over a period of minutes, or see the tide roll out, or see the grass grow and die over a year. Fabulous stuff, and worth a visit.
