The power of YouTube has resulted in fame for "funtwo", a mysterious guitar player. Over 7 million videos have been run of funtwo playing an extremely difficult Pachelbel's canon on his guitar. His virtuoso performance features a technique called sweep-picking.
Funtwo turns out to be Jeong-Hyun Lim, a 23 year old self-taught South Korean. The New York Times has a fun article that traces the story from Jerry Chang's music video with his guitar arrangement to YouTube success to an interview with Mr. Lim.
