A Firework’s Point of View

The Texas-based artist and videographer Jeremiah Warren mounted a wide angle lens camera on some fireworks to give us the fireworks’ angle on their own brief, bright trajectory. Not surprisingly, the very cool two-minute video — equal parts Strangelove, Pynchon, and vertigo — went viral over the weekend.

For more information about Warren’s camera set-up, check out his Flickr page.

Happy Fourth!
