Kurume Kasuri
200 years ago during the Edo period a 12 year old girl named Den Inoue noticed a white dot on her kimono fabric. Unravelling the threads to get a better look she realized that two of the crossing threads were not dyed, creating a white spot. After much experimenting she discovered that wrapping threads before dying them was a new way of making patterned fabric. This traditional Japanese technique, which spread all over the continent, all began with her small observation. Today there are still a number of fabric weavers continuing the traditional handmade process of Kurume Kasuri.Beautiful stuff…

Might have to forgive some of the cheesy music but a lot of the clips are pretty incredible.

@Giles there's a list of equipment on the Vimeo page for the timelapse:
-
Canon EOS 6D
-
Canon EOS 550D
-
24-105mm f4L
-
70-200 f4L,
-
15-85mm f3.5-5.6
-
Samyang 14mm f2.8
The last two are motion control rigs, so the photographer will have programmed them to move slightly, take a shot, move again, and then repeat. After that it's just a case of assembling the video from stills.
My guess would be that your camera set-up is better than the above. Don't you have an enormous Nikon? You just need the robots to do the grunt work.

Like the last scene most.
Life, like a dome of many-coloured glass,
Stains the white radiance of Eternity,
Until Death tramples it to fragments. — Die,
If thou wouldst be with that which thou dost seek!
Follow where all is fled! -

So many more lovely scenes in there.
Always shaken at 3:00

Start at 3:30 and watch the "Bruce Lee style" scene.
But then you have missed the beginning of 37 min.
This guys open a new narrative dimension.
