cool creative: a moment with onehourpersecond
Every second, one hour of video is uploaded to Google’s YouTube. That equates to a decade’s worth of footage every single day. Or, in 10 days, an entire video century.
The video-sharing website has lots more time-bending stats it wants to communicate. Which is why the Google Data Arts team has joined forces with digital production outfit Punk & Butler to develop a new website, onehourpersecond.com, with illustrations by Alex Eben Meyer.
By the way, did you know that in 48 seconds of uploads to YouTube, a bamboo plans grows six feet (two days of video)? Or that in one minute 13 seconds of uploads, one million babies are born (two days and 15 hours of video)?
