Starlit
Ink and acrylic paint in a very thick transparent medium. I love these types of “fluid art” experimental videos where the movement of liquid and colour seems to mimic or represent nature in both scale and time. German photographer Roman De Giuli has truly mastered the technique. Starlit, the video below shows tiny bubbles, magnified […]
Blob Opera
I just spent both an enjoyable and unthinkable amount of time playing on this piece of coding genius from google labs – Blob Opera.
Accelerated Expressions
All graphics are procedurally generated in real time, no post-editing. As much as I don’t quite understand how these types of videos are produced, I love projects like this where no camera is used and content is generated by “renderers”.
Dumping
Man digs hole, man fills hole. Bit gross really. I recently tumbled across this remarkable image from UK photographer Robin Friend. The painterly image is from his recent book, Bastard Countryside, a collection that eerily shows the collision of the natural and man-made.
Melt House
Great architecture warms me. And all this time in iso has me dreaming of the ideal home. Satoshi Saito of SAI Architectural Design Office in Osaka, Japan has designed the Melt House for a young family and I am guessing they should be very happy with the end result.
2020: an isolation odyssey
Lydia Cambron from New York has made exceptional use of her time in isolation. The great leveller that is the current pandemic has the majority of earthlings simultaneously bunkered down at home living a somewhat skewed variation of the norm. Clearly not one to waste her time, Lydia has put together an incredible reenactment of Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey’s timeless, partly cryptic final sequence.
John Laurie
Well travelled Melbourne based photographer John Laurie takes beautiful photos of far away mysterious places – anywhere you haven’t been yet is mysterious right? Egypt, Mexico and Chile to name just a few. Current world situation has me dreaming of travel but in a different light. Lock down brings with it a new sense of […]
Stare at the Sun
Our whole lives we are told not to stare at the Sun. Well now you can and for a complete hour no less, and without those pesky tinted cardboard glasses. This stunning time lapse brought to you by the good people at NASA shows 10 years of the sun’s life, where each second of the […]
XK Studio
Mind blown. London based XK Studio produce super slick motion graphic pieces. Colour, sound, physics, animation and composition all in perfect harmony, and barely a filmed frame to be seen.
Information Is Beautiful
Well it can be when you present it well. So much data, so little time to interpret. The good people at informationisbeautiful.net are doing their best at presenting data in more visually pleasing ways that when done really well, makes you see and think about the data differently.
