Photo Mosaic
About 2,000 tiny photographs drawn in code fly in, sort themselves into a tone ramp and then into a lighthouse at dusk; the camera pulls back until the picture resolves, then dives into one tile to show a sailboat print with a locator map.

About this style
A photographic mosaic builds one large picture out of many small photographs, each chosen or tinted so its average tone matches its place in the larger image. The idea goes back to photo collages of the nineteenth century and became a popular digital technique in the 1990s, when software could match thousands of tiles automatically. The appeal is the double read: a single image from far away and hundreds of separate stories up close.
