A very clever way to understand the credit crisis

This is the work of Jonathan Jarvis, as part of his MFA in Fine Arts thesis, and gives even the thickest of us a great way of understanding the whole financial crisis that we are embroiled in.

The Crisis of Credit Visualized from Jonathan Jarvis on Vimeo.

From Mr. Jarvis:

The goal of giving form to a complex situation like the credit crisis is to quickly supply the essence of the situation to those unfamiliar and uninitiated. This project was completed as part of my thesis work in the Media Design Program, a graduate studio at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California.
