twelve years ago, a painter by the name of anders ramsell painted 12,597 aquarelle paintings of blade runner, shot by shot, of the entire film edited down to ~35 minutes. it took two years of painstaking work, all done in his spare time after work each night.

the video circled around the web for a few years, and quietly disappeared from every single site it was hosted at.

a few months ago i spent a few hours digging for it, and finally found a copy of the original file.

i'm not sure how long it will last over at IA, so enjoy it while you can. it is a true achievement. 🙏

@vga256 I have a copy if it ever goes away too. It might be that IA archived the copy from youtube as mine has IsoMedia tag with Google credits.
I believe it was hosted in Vimeo as well at some point which might prove a higher quality, though it is more than watchable as is (but best be seen by those that have already seen it of course; mental visual aids).
@jessienab good to know. what's the file size of your copy?
@vga256 same as I think what's on IA, ~736MB (accounting for bit/byte/kibi counting differences).
@jessienab interesting. i haven't found any evidence of it ever being on vimeo yet - looks like anders was a youtube user from the beginning
