I was browsing different methods of video presentation and ran across this video. I can’t say for sure why, but I really, really enjoyed it. It was annoying at the beginning and annoying at the end just like a test pattern is supposed to be. The overall effect was clean and simple while at the same time dynamic and complex.

However long it took you to put this together I would suggest was worth it.
