I love Time Lapse videos and there are so many great ones out there; I don't want them getting lost in the Youtube thread so post them here, with a description if available.

Flawed Symmetry of Prediction, as shot by Southern California artist Jeff Frost. Frost's video footage of the desert and abandoned houses in the American Southwest is certainly stunning in its own right, but it was his incorporation of three perspective-bending optical illusions — and his use of time-lapse as a medium to expose the reality behind those illusions — that really sold us. The third painting (beginning around 3:14) is particularly striking in this regard.
Frost described to us his creative process:
I have a serious case of wanderlust. My favorite thing to do is roam the deserts in search of abandoned buildings. When I find a room I particularly like, I set up camp there (sometimes literally), and proceed to paint a large mural on the inside of it.
[With this video], I was interested in depicting the limited nature of perception, and our use of it to determine reality. The idea that we are literally surrounded by hidden worlds, and that almost nothing appears to us as it actually is, absolutely fascinates me.
