“The peculiar reversal of the city’s movement against his own distinguishes his story from that of the other 24 million people taking 24 million walks in Shanghai. It’s through a heightened focus on one man’s seemingly unstructured journey that we discover the ultimate protagonist of this story: the transcendent power of using your legs for discovering a city,” according to the video’s description.
It sure beats Google Street View.
Singh has been known for collaborating with Rob Whitworth (who filmed this now-famous hyperlapse of Saigon traffic) on a similar project in North Korea.
