This video features in a responsive display in the museum that presents the moments, stories and memes capturing the zeitgeist by going viral on the internet.
What cinematic trope is more iconic (and more replicated) than a good old-fashioned, dramatic slow-motion running scene? Combine it with a dramatic musical accompaniment (here, Wagner’s “Ride of the Valkyries” plays that role to perfection) and an eyewatering number of cute dogs, and you have the recipe for the perfect viral pet video - one that ends, fittingly, in glorious chaos.
