Global Protests & Uprisings Maps Time-Lapse




Uploaded by SwampPost on Mar 9, 2011

"December 18 to March 7, 2011, this little video is a time-lapse series of maps marking major uprisings and protests around the world during that period. The maps are on my blog (see swanpPost on youtube link) and this was a by-product.

Obviously, not every protest in the world is represented here, but it is arguably to scale. Mostly, it looks like a virus and that's cool."

The piano snippet is from a song called The Waltz, composed and performed by a Venice Beach artist named Jourdan Stephens.
