Well, here's your cool timelapse video of the day...

Over on Dallas' Reddit page this morning, caught an exciting piece from local artist Andy Buchanan. The two-minute plus video chronicles the construction of Buchanan's action-y, three-dimension-y mural "Rescuing Freedom." According the YouTube vid, the piece took three weeks to complete.
