  Enter the Sift Lounge to chat with online sifters about anything and everything, or read interesting posts in the Sift Talk forum.
  The Top New Videos list is always full of interesting, current videos. It is always recommended that you have a look through the Top New Videos, but also have a look at these:
  - Upcoming Unsifted Videos - active video submissions that neither are published to the front page nor archived to the submitter's personal queue
- Have you seen a really funny, surprising, scary, interesting, cute or in any other way extra good quality video?
  Post and share it here - VideoSift is the best video aggregator on the Web, where we share, discuss, promote, and interact with the best videos out there on the web. Post it here, and share it with the large community of video-interested users. And - you are guaranteed to find more very good videos here already!
  Mind you, we only share videos you discover that someone else has made; if you "self link," by posting a video you have made, have posted or have interests in, you risk the ban hammer - read the posting guidelines before posting. The sift is NOT for promoting your own videos - it is for sharing videos others have made.

WoodSwimmer

submitted by oblio70

7 years 5 months ago

Brett Foxwell, who has built armatures for films (Boxtrolls, Force Awakens...), dives into a raw bit of wood through a milling machine, capturing its unique growth rings, knots, and weathered spots. Due to speed at which the images are animated, the logs grains begin to flow like sand in a vibrant dance.

@oblio70 I recommend replacing the embed with this video as it has better quality sound.
