Zoom into a butterfly's wing

Monday, September 28, 2009

There's a series of fascinating videos online, in which the camera zooms in for closer and closer views of everyday things - clay pots, human teeth, bugs, etc. I've embedded a clip below where we zoom in for an extremely close look at a butterfly's wing. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find out where these clips originally came from. The narrator's voice is extremely familiar, it's driving me nuts. (He sort of sounds like Mohinder Suresh, doesn't he?)



I don't suggest watching the clips where they zoom into human body parts unless you have a really strong stomach. The one where they zoom into human skin made me want to take a bath in a big tub of bleach.

"Science fiction plucks from within us our deepest fears and hopes, then shows them to us in rough disguise: the monster and the rocket." - W.H. Auden

Who is he, this one who is called "Greg Stacy"?

Greg Stacy began the MONSTERS AND ROCKETS blog in April of 2009. Prior to that, he was editor of the popular sci-fi/horror news website DARKWOLDS.COM. He has also written for LA WEEKLY, OC WEEKLY, UTNE READER and LOS ANGELES CITYBEAT. He always feels weird writing about himself in the third person.
