The growth of Ambient Music over recent years has been matched by the
upsurgence of ambient videos.  This started with artistic films of
aquariums and waves rolling over the sea shore.  This developed into
videos taken from inside cars which would drive around the M25 Greater
London ring road.  For train spotters, there are videos of complete train
journeys.

In the last years of the twentieth century the Imaginar Corporation of
Soho, London released two highly successful ambient video CDs.  The first
distributed the pleasures of watching paint dry, and the second watching
grass grow.
