I often find myself spending hours watching Vimeo videos, pondering on the minds that sprung forth such beautiful and imaginative content. I like to think of myself as a creative and pensive soul, but it’s always a sobering experience when I realize that while I may be creative I’m not a creative genius. There are some inspiring souls out there who will never cease to amaze me. My thoughts wander to far off places regularly, but those places never end up manifesting themselves into anything more than a day dream. A real genius can make a day dream reality.

I thought about this idea as I watched this very strange video on Vimeo. I’m not necessarily in love with this video, but it once again made me wish that I was better at transforming my thoughts into a visually tangible product.
