well as explained in a PM, to me it looked more like the intro video for a stage on Need for Speed or something, it was actually difficult to work out what the PCB was doing, the effects actually make the PCB look broken, flipping from one thing to another etc.

I am impressed, and happy that a working copy has been found but I'm always going to advocate a cleaner, more professional approach to presenting such things, showing each element in detail for extended periods of time; instead I was getting flashbacks to the most recent episode of Better Call Saul ;-)
