e_to_the_ipi in a slightly tangential response to one of my earlier posts, but I think that it needs some more exposure. It must be said at this point that I'm not sure what I'm actually watching here, but I think that it does nonetheless.

As far as I can tell, it's a summary of the news of the Scottish independence referendum as seen through the eyes of someone who's taken a vast quantity of acid, rendered in 3D to make David Cameron look even more like an android than he normally does. I don't think I've ever seen any examples of Taiwanese humour before, but I have to admire both the detail of David Cameron's Margaret Thatcher pin-up calendar, and the fact that Alex Salmond appears to be played here by Rab C Nesbitt... along with several other details that really have to be seen to be believed. I wouldn't have expected things like that to turn up even in most Western videographers' efforts.
