...paint your palette with... pulled pork?

A video of some white middle class men doing some African tribal dance outside a Bristol pub one summer's evening, but clearly having no idea what they were doing and looking more like small children on ADHD medication trying to tumble around each other. I didn't quite catch the part where one man spins and kicks another in the head.

Oh, also I've merged the video with machine learning/neural network algorithm that applied Van Gogh's Starry Night over it. It took a shitload of processing power to do it, so I fired up an EC2 GPU box, hoping it would take an hour or so. Instead it took about 10 hours to do 262 frames and in all cost me a fair bob. Whoops. So although I'd love to try more video stuff with this effect, I think I'll spare my wallet.

Also, I swear that YouTube just hates video encoding :/
