Recently I’ve seen several clip of the Internet’s dancing guy – Matt Harding. He also has a website wherethehellismatt.com. I was quite impressed and loved his clips at the first sight. There’s something inspiring in them, something that connects all kinds of different people around the world, independent of their culture, religion, race, and social status.
There are no words in the videos, just funny dancing. And they are a joy to watch. I also checked out his lecture on how he became the dancing guy – very interesting. I wish he would come up with new clips every year or so.
I think it is possible to analyze and break down a clip into perceptional layers to figure out the basic schema that makes them so popular, then add/mix it with a different new layer/flavor each year.
Matt has a way of making people happy…
…and he even visited Iceland – Enjoy
