VIDEO: A Werner Herzog Poke

A little poke at the dark German director Werner Herzog who is endlessly eccentric.

A "brilliant blend" of humor and philosophy reflecting on today’s infographic culture. Inspired by Jessica Hagy’s blog, another Brain Pickings favorite, it’s narrated by a (rather excellent) Werner Herzog impersonator who nails Herzog’s characteristic monotonous snark with a degree of precision and an ounce of caricature that only adds to the dark charm of the piece.
