A staggering visual history celebration of Prague’s 600-year-old Astronomical Clock from Oct. 2010, with video mapping projection. This artform slays me. Unlike all of the people taking flash photography during a light show.

Here’s a fun little trailer for League of Legends Season One: I don’t play WoW. Apparently, this is a spin-off from it, and the Trailer is marketing for the game. Which is cool.
