Flat Earth is a desktop
documentary, which takes the viewer on a seven minute trip
around the world so that we encounter a series of fragments
taken from real peoples' blogs. These fragments are knitted
together to form a kind of story or singular narrative. |

The visual effect is not
unlike that of Google Earth, although
significantly here, nearly all of the visual material for, Flat
Earth is
taken from satellite imagery freely available on the web.
This is with the exception of the close-up imagery from outside
USA, which had to be paid for non-commercial use and a series
of images taken from Flickr under Creative Commons attribution
license. |
