youtube - Sand artist on Czech talent show

[sgl42]

just found this, and thought it was really well done. about 9 minutes long:

It’s of a contestant in what looks to me like the Czech version of an “America’s Got Talent” style competition. To save you guessing, sand in a lighted box is the medium the young woman is working with. Truly amazing… follow the link just below.
