This neat video by Kosai Sekine, the guy behind that wonderful obsessive-compulsive combini man short that I posted last February, looks at the Tokyo cityscape through a giant kaleidescope. Quite mesmerizing.

I like this video. I have lately been a fan of videos from http://www.fareastrecording.com/
There are some brilliant videos they have put together. Especially, a video for yosawya san by yohei ito. The trend of 8-bit audio remix is nicely shown off through this pixelated depiction of the streets of tokyo.
