A friend, who you may remember from the leading edge of early-’00s Game Boy camera cinema , forwarded along this short video yesterday. Essentially, it’s the final minute of a dying digital camera; at some point likely involving alcohol, the once-waterproof camera’s casing had cracked and said friend just decided to keep rolling until the bitter end. What you see in the video is water creeping toward the camera’s sensor, with a final result that is actually quite cool, a most-excellent aesthetic accident.
