1 Blue Pixel

The video was inspired by a historic photo made by Voyager-1 spacecraft in 1990. The spacecraft was 6 billion kilometers away from Earth. The title of the photo is Pale Blue Dot. The size of the Earth is less than one pixel. Just a tiny blue dot in the black infinity. Pixel is a starting point (a smallest addressable element and fundamental element of digital creative work), and a point that contains everything (the place where everything ever happened to humanity). Man is floating on the edge of the macro and the micro world. That is why man tries to uncover the rules of the micro world behind the macro world. Each frame of the animation was made or reproduced with a flatbed scanner.
