Love the animation but oddly narrow notion of "duplication." What about bacteria or metastasizing cancer cells or rabbits or cockroaches or mice, or malicious rumors . . . or stars?
Tom P   08.27.10
Fun & interesting scale info., but I'm not quite sure what "make a difference" is asking the viewer to do? Not duplicate?

Thanks!

very interesting,simple story easy to understand.

enjoy this video!
I think it much focus on the people copy and paste , which nowadays people love mass production and just copy the otheres, right?

So cute!
I like the expression,Have impact, a simple but profound. Set the current element feels quite interesting.

Annabel   09.01.10
Love the cute old stone age people and their action.
For me, "make a difference" refers to human behavior (copying fake product , copying thinking)
This is quite interesting idea and congratulations! :-)

Can't understand first time,after I watch the video second time,I say "You are right,Daniel".
Maybe you guys need more time to make the full story much more clearly.

Copy and paste is easy but make our world without creative things.
