Boston Layer-Lapse: A Beautiful “Layered” Time-Lapse Look at Boston [Video]

Photographer Julian Tryba takes a unique approach to time-lapse videography by creating a video that integrates different layers of time-lapse footage, all happening at different times but at the same location, into a single scene.

From Julian Tryba:

Traditional time-lapses are constrained by the idea that there is a single universal clock. In the spirit of Einstein’s relativity theory, layer-lapses assign distinct clocks to any number of objects or regions in a scene. Each of these clocks may start at any point in time, and tick at any rate. The result is a visual time dilation effect known as layer-lapse.
