Retro, Saul Bass inspired, video for the new Resistance game. Love the styling.
A slow moving piece of public art. People passing by won’t even realise it slowly changes, its only seeing the final stop motion that reveals the movement.
A look behind the scenes of Period. , an interactive projection and audio installation controlled via iPhone. Made for the Mutek festival in Montreal.
Interesting use of tech I’ve only seen used for ad campaigns with any frequency.
Jurjen Versteeg created this video as his graduation piece, he describes it as:
…a possible title sequence for a fictitious documentary, this film shows a history of the title sequence in a nutshell. The sequence includes all the names of title designers who had a revolutionary impact on the history and evolution of the title sequence. The names of the title designers all refer to specific characteristics of the revolutionary titles that they designed.
The mood captured in the piece is superb and the whole thing has a cohesive simplicity that takes it to another level. All in all I can’t commend Jurien enough.
Teller, of Penn & Teller fame, explains some of the psychology used for illusions. Really interesting to see behind the curtain and learn how magic relates to real life behaviour.
I found myself wondering about how this behaviour can happen when I’m designing interactive processes like websites or apps. Could this repetition be used or abused to get the user to do what we want? At the moment we can fail to think enough about it and that leads to bad user experience.
Amazing touch screen installation on 3 82” multi-touch LCD screens82” multi-touch LCDs!. Great little touches in the way its implemented love that each column can be dragged up and down.
Squeal is a peculiar noise generation app, a little like a theramin. The twist… manipulate portraits to generate the different sounds. There are some famous faces and you can even submit your own picture to be implemented.
I really like the portraits and find this experimental point to app creation really interesting. It’s great to start seeing apps as an artistic medium.
Trailer for Amon Tobin’s all new, highly ambitious, breathtaking ‘ISAM’ live show. Tobin will be stepping away from previous DJ centric performances, and instead will be providing a large scale live audio/visual experience to select cities around the world. Designed in conjunction with Blasthaus, VSquared Labs, Vita Motus Design, Leviathan and others.
Looks amazing.
Nike Chosen. A new campaign by 72andsunny. Skate, surf and bmx competition. Here’s the pitch:
Take the stage and own the spot light. We’re looking for crews pushing the boundaries of style and creativity. Because the further you go, the further we all go.
Nice art direction on the video, really hope they get some good submissions, always a risk with user generated content.
Beautiful and somewhat vertigo inducing time-lapse video from mindrelic. Shot over a month hotel hopping in Manhattan. How he’s managed to capture some of the angles I can’t begin to imagine.
