    The answer to the OP's question "Why?" is to advertise Samsung LEDs. The skeptical among us might wonder how much of this is real, and how much is post-production. Hint: They created an illuminated Mona Lisa on a flock of sheep.

    I think the Mona Lisa bit was fudged but alot of the rest is plausible.

    I do have my suspicions about the Mona Lisa thing. In their defense, they did it in 'tiles' which are easy to crop to the proper size, eliminating any extraneous stuff.

    Also, the human eye WANTS to see patterns. It's in-built in us. Which is why those photo-mosaic programs have such an easy time, even when it's using a colour that isn't in the original image. The human brain simply edits it in.

    Computer tweaking aside, that's pretty brilliant.
