208) Come Together

Mentioning Postsecret in yesterday's post made me think of other crowdsourced art projects I'm into. Of all its wonders, I think crowdsourcing is one of the greatest things about the Internet. Here are a few more, for your viewing pleasure:

- Star Wars Uncut - Episode IV: A New Hope was cut up into 15 second clips. Participants were invited to claim one and recreate it however they wanted, after which the clips were stitched back together. It's an amazing display of Star Wars fandom and creativity. Clip below.

- Eric Whitacre's Virtual Choir, 'Lux Aurumque' - A choir composed of YouTube videos, with 185 singers representing 12 countries. Gorgeous and awe-inspiring, especially the way the video is laid out.


- The Sheep Market - 10,000 sheep drawn facing left using Amazon's Mechanical Turk. Select one to replay how it was drawn. Random, but the Little Prince would be proud.
