More artistic location based hacking - a video in which the action is controlled by changes in the weather.

TheUnseenVideo_04_300dpi.jpgThe makers say,

The Unseen Video is much more than a normal, static music video. It is a video that is affected by the weather and local time from the position of the viewer.

We want to create new synergies between the music, the video and the surroundings of the viewer. Every little change in your environment ensures that you will never see the same video twice. The look of the video might slightly change within an hour, but will have a whole new character in a few months.

View the video and read about the ‘making of’ on the Unseen Video site. The music track is ‘You make me feel’ by Mike Milosh.

Nice.
