The data was collected via Python programming and manually mapped to each frame of the film. The video shows irregular flashes that are exactly how searches change over a 24-hour period.
The timeline of the film is from 5th November at 9am to 6th November 2024 at 9am. 1440 data is 1440 minutes in a 24 hour period.
