After looking at those pics several times and thinking about them for a day, I have to agree with dar.
A cute little set up, but a set up nonetheless.

Set-up agreed: Isn't there usually a trail of those suckers, not just one little conglomeration around a chip?

Well then how the eff do they carry the chip? Are you saying they get in a line and pass it over their heads like freaks jumping into a crowd at a concert?

I've seen plenty of nature shows on PBS where ants team up to carry a large find back to the nest.

Yeah! Chip surfing! Woo hoo!!!

Just saying whenever I've seen an ant invasion, there may be a crowd gathered around the bounty, but there tends to be a trail ahead of and behind the blob. Just saying...

My problem is with the second to last and last pictures. How do those little ants get the chip to go from vertical to horizontal? Just seems suspect to me.

If those ants want that chip in that crack, they'll find a way. When I was a kid, I used to put different things on anthills, just to see how they'd cope. They always solve the problem. I once put a large Nightcrawler worm on a red ant hill, and they swarmed and worked all day until they made their hole big enough to drag him in.
