One of the most amazing things is that each little pixel and fluctuating bar is not procedural or randomly generated. Its thousands of individuals working together to make one of the most powerful work of art in existence. What other single work of art has had so many people contribute before?
@@noahmay7708 I'd argue so. It's a representation of how humanity has crawled from the ocean, evolved to harness electricity, lived in and around it to form massive amount of media, communities and inside jokes and is all mashed together to show it all off.

This is really cool! Looking forward to seeing how it applied to the new r/place from this year! And yeah, I can definitely see how it could have broader applications for actual practical data analysis.
As I can tell from seeing how fast the usernames changed for some of the pixels, I think the spots with the most activity would be the corners, French flag, and (69,420)
1:45 is amazing. It's baffling how they even figured out that it was the first heart, and how they were trying so hard to keep it alive (remember, ONE LEGITIMATE ACCOUNT had ONE PIXEL change every 5 MINUTES)! I literally "wow"ed out loud when you explained the heatmap of that particular point.

r place was just the best. I wasn’t part of it myself but I love learning about it’s history, and when it becomes a few decades old, it better be taught in history classes. Such an amazing example of human teamwork and psychology.
That is nearly what i wanted to see after it was over. What i'd like to see is kind of a heatmap over the course of the full event, but in a way that show the different color pixels as cubes and stacking them. Therefore you could see which pixel changed to which colors.
The German and French flag war ending with a European Union flag in the intersection is one of my favorite stories to come out of rplace and it is a great example of what the whole social experiment proves. None of the pictures would be possible without cooperation between many people. I gave a speech that was partially on this back in high school as a middle finger the the teacher and his depressive outlook on every subject and book we read. It ended up being voted as joint third place for the class, which meant he had to give me extra credit for it.
Still proud of the osrs community for putting that lost connection in the corner. Nothing beats people who will do the same task over and over again for days on end.
I think it would be interesting to get a simulation that instead of replacing pixels it instead places them on top of each other so you can see which parts of the map had the most individual pixels placed. So for example the France flag would be a mountain
This is so cool. I would love to see more stuff like this but with different settings. Like only 2-4 colours or obstacles in the middle to see how the factions play it out
I wonder if we're going to get another one of these for the new Place. Also is there a mode that just shows towers of every edited pixel dropped on the older pixels? like, retaining everything as a cube, dropped vertically ontop of the others
"The germans thought it would be funny to invade france"
think i heard that before
