The monument is a circular mosaic of black and white marble tiles and in the center is the title of John Lennon's song, "Imagine". It is flat and you can walk over it but everyone walks around it because there are daily arrangments of flowers from visitors and endearing fans. It was nice to see parents explaining to their kids who John Lennon was and why there is a memorial for him.
The ghosting effect of the people was done to add a sense of depth and time. People stop, pause and then move on leaving a bit of their spirit behind. I had been watching an animimated movie by Hayao Miyazaki called Spirited Away.
