Petals Over Costa Rica

How do you bring a television monitor’s ability to display four times the detail of full high definition to life? Use 8 million vividly colored flower petals to represent the number of pixels in the display, of course. In Sony’s new advert, real life flower petals were released in the Costa Rican landscape – dancing through the streets of a village and erupting from the Irazu Volcano. The result is a beautiful visual explosion of color and magnificent detail!
