El Camino is a short sequence from the Visual Almanac, an early prototype program produced by the Apple Multimedia Lab. El Camino is a split-screen comparison of a well-known mile in Silicon Valley. The footage comes from a California State Department of Transportation photogrammetry project, which has been filming highways with a special camera triggered 1 frame every 52.8 feet, or 100 frames per mile.
