friend of mine passed on this great video at YouTube by Michael Wesch (Assistant Professor of Cultural Anthropology, Kansas State university). I also noticed that Alec Saunders has it on his page too, so it looks like this video is making the rounds.

I thought it was simply fantastic. A tip of the hat to Professor Wesch and his team. Enjoy.
