Want to see a movie made by chimps? As part of a project at the Edinburgh Zoo, a group of chimps were able to record video clips by manipulating a camera inside a “chimp proof” box. Though the full footage is being reserved for a BBC special, you can watch some clips here. It’s pretty interesting! We’ll have to look into whether we can recreate a chimp proof camera here at CSNW. I bet some of our residents would have some visual messages to share!
Also, check out a nice write-up on us on the Times Union blog, written by Patrick Battuello, the same person who wrote about chimps in entertainment earlier this week.
All I can say is WOW!!!!!!! That is fantastic! I look forward to seeing what we can do. Let us know when the special is.
Thanks Sarah.
I particularly liked this sentence from Patrick Battuello’s blog, “The bastardization of their species should end with this generation.” Perfectly said.
I enjoyed the BBC video very much.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful to see what Jamie chose to video?
I bet Burrito would launch the Chimp Food Channel. ;)
