When we were in Carmel on the day after Christmas we went to visit the Monterey Bay Aquaruim. It was incredibly crowded, but that is a different story. I went because I wanted to see the Jellyfish display again. This time I took some very nice pictures. Here is one:

But even more importantly I bought a DVD made by a company called Ambience Visuals that is one hour of jellyfish swimming past the camera. It is fabulous. I call the concept “background video.”
Many years ago I had the idea for background video and it nice to see that someone has done it. The model I visualized was different than theirs. Ambient Visuals sells the DVD outright. I thought that a cable company would broadcast it free on one of their open channels and it could be monetized by selling a watermark in the lower left to a sponsor like Pepsi.

Discover HD has Sunrise Earth on every weekday morning.

Some other background videos I’d like to see are:

• A year in the life of a tree
• A busy park bench on a beautiful day
• Koi in a pond
• A freeway interchange
• Children playing in a park
