Can you imagine? If you had your wall papered in e-ink panels you could have localised control too, cast something to one in particular or put up all your holiday photos, one after the other.

Would not be pleasant when your whole room is flashing though.

I'm actually a bit surprised that there aren't gopro videos of spectacular hikes that go real time step-by-step from start to finish, that one could use as wallpaper. Wouldn't you want to get one from, let's say, climbing Everest? Or mount one on the nose of a locomotive and film a coast-to-coast train journey?

Not GoPro, but Norwegian broadcaster NRK have filmed several train journeys as part of their "slow tv" offering. Original HD video files (200++ GB) are available [0], and there are multiple versions on Youtube, like a 10 hour trip with Nordlandsbanen from Trondheim to Bodø [1] and a 7 hour trip from Bergen to Oslo [2], including a 10 minute stretch from Finse where the scenes from Hoth in Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back were filmed [3].

You can find more videos via searching for the phrase "minutt for minutt" on YouTube.

Those are awesome, and just what I'm talking about. If only there was a wall display!

The video that actually inspired me to go find and hike El Caminito del Rey (back before they renovated it and reopened it)

A friend of mine has brought this to spin class: Scenic cycle - http://sceniccycle.com/

He drove and recorded all the footage himself then opened his studio!

Experienced the projection version of this in an art gallery[1], speaking of flashing.
