Sorting algorithms Visualized

Algorithms are somehow a complex black box. Everyone of us seems to have a rather plain concept of what they are and what they do, but the core principles are unknown to most of us. This video does not change that, but it helps to understand how algorithms follow different approaches for the same task. In this case a sorting task. Also, there is added sound, which makes this experience even more awesome.

For those of us who want to see this live on their desktops, just install the program Audibilization shown below. It is how they created the visualization in the first place.
