Wow, these images are very dreamlike and not just from the flying POV.

There's something fascinating about the familiar but nonsensical details. Who says a CPU can't go on an acid trip?

I think the fact that it has short-term but not long-term temporal coherence is part of what gives it that surreal quality. A range of any five frames looks like a plausible view shift, but over longer timeframes, it looks like details are appearing out of the horizon. Still really cool though.
