    It is yet unexplored idea for slow TV - film/shoot spider web making in REAL time. Not that long, about an hour, usual length of slow-TV, and not difficult at all - but it is absolutely mesmerising, awesome - and relaxing! - to watch it unfolding in front of you on real time scale. I get frozen in awe when coming across spiders making webs. Just don't have time and tools to make a proper video.

    Thank you so much for posting this!
    I had a beautiful spider like this just outside my back door beside the porch light. It would make its web every night after dusk. Whenever I turned the porch light on, it was like I was feeding a pet, because all the bugs would swarm around the porch light and I would watch it eat.
    Then I walked out one day and saw its unmistakable three anchor strands, but never saw the spider again. :(
    I didn't know what species it was, but thanks to this video, now I do!
