The photo is of course stitched, it is a way to get a lot of pixels
using a digital camera. This photos does not even come close to what
some others have done, I have seen a 2.5 GP photo. But the high
resolution stitched photos that I have seen to date have been of pretty
static scenes, I wanted something with a bit of a dynamic feel to it,
something where people are doing things in the photo.

Interesting test - what did you use for the stitching? How much overlap
was there between the shots? Did you use a rigging to take the
photos, or was it handheld?

Buried on my list of to-dos, I'd like to experiment with very
large-scale stitching, with a goal in the 1000MP range (wall-sized
high-res print).

I expected to do a static scene, and probably make a rig to pan & scan
the ~400 images. This could even fit on one memory card, but flash
recording time will be the limiting factor for a live scene - capturing
a single scene could easily take 2 minutes. Using a bank of several
cameras might be an (expensive) idea, if the colors / exposures can be
balanced.

Your example is encouraging; maybe a live scene is even viable if the
images can be captured quickly enough. Perhaps by rapid-firing the live
areas and methodically collecting the static portions, then compiling
the result - what was your technique?.
