Tokyo Light Odyssey

From Space and Tokyo and back with this impressive mind-bending 360º video called Tokyo Light Odyssey by Japanese R&D film WowLab using in-house software. Via Gizmodo:

So far, 360° videos have mostly worked as novelty items that are rarely impressive. But I have to say this motion graphics exercise that starts in a sort of Max Headroom-ish outer space blasts through a deconstructed Tokyo and finally turns into a Space Odyssey-style head trip is one of the finest examples of the technique that anyone’s produced.
Japanese R&D firm Wowlab produced the clip using its own in-house omnidirectional motion graphics platform. […]

All that matters is that it looks amazing and has a great feeling of momentum while the camera squeezes through the tiniest holes or breaks through to the infinite reaches of space.
