Watching a ceramist shape wet clay on a potter’s wheel is a mesmerizing sight to see. Seeing the same process from the wheel’s point of view puts an extra spin on it. Literally.

Eric Landon of Tortus Copenhagen in Denmark mounted a camera to a potter’s wheel to see what things look like when the clay and wheel are fixed and it’s the rest of the world that’s spinning around.
