Watch this: the alien beat of microscopic life in 'Micro Empire'
It's Sunday evening, and you're probably getting ready for bed — so why not watch this fantastically creepy video that drops a beat to the splanchnic rhythm of some of the most alien-looking microorganisms you've ever seen? Micro Empire is a short fim from Austrian filmmaker Clemens Wirth that explores the world of "molecular conflict and mitochondrial warfare," often in gut-twisting detail, set to music from Radium Audio that's reminiscent of something you'd hear from Nine Inch Nails. Wirth used a Canon 5D Mark II that's adapted for a monocular microscope to capture the macro paradise, and says that "it's unbelievable how much is going on in only one little water drop."
