What a wonderful and moving piece of work.

I can't figure out what material she was working with to get those ever changing "white-outs", but it is certainly very clever and the speed at which she works is amazing.

The music at the end was a cover version of Metallica's 'Nothing Else Matters' played by Apocalyptica. They are four young men (Swedish I think) who are classically trained cellists, and very skilful too. They began by playing Metallica mostly, but do all sorts of stuff, and are amazing to see live. I would put a youtube link, but don't know how :roll:
