Michael Moschen: Juggling rhythm & motion

Being a diehard fan of TED, I’m always anxious to see what new and amazing presentation is around the corner. Michael Moschen’s highly artistic approach to juggling and rhythm is another example of a really captivating “talk.”

Rabbit - Run Wrake

Here’s a really fantastic piece by Run Wrake. Wonderful illustrations, excellent animation, a real treat!

When a boy and girl find an idol in the stomach of a rabbit, great riches follow, but for how long?

Sympathique, 2000

Here goes my first foray into YouTube. I filmed and edited this for an end-of-the-year work party. Kevin selected the song which was the basis of the whole concept. If you’re interested in the song, it’s on the Pink Martini CD.

Akbank ad

Akbank is a Turkish bank. Despite not understanding Turkish, the messaging is pretty universal—especially for a bank. The most amazing element though is the execution itself. It’s a simple pleasure to be zoomed out watching people act as pixels. It reminds me of the Human Space Invader clip I came across the other day. Perhaps this is a developing trend?

Freaky Skittles ad

Skittles has come out with one of the strangest TV ads I’ve seen in awhile. There’s something oddly attractive to the weird hippy hairiness. Their site is out their too, I just wish it was made with a little more care—the quality of the graphics is butt.

Download some Democracy

^{Image: Participatory Culture Foundation}

With a name like Democracy (formerly DTV), this application makes a strong statement by making the user somewhat of a program selecter. You choose which channels to subscribe to, you choose which clips to keep, delete, etc. As of right now, there’s a limited amount of channels that provide good, quality content, but what do you expect for free? I suppose you could say the same for 90% of the podcasts out there. At any rate, the interface of Democracy is well thought out and quite nice to use—not perfect though. While it’s easy to subscribe to channels and navigate through them, once you’ve downloaded more than 10 clips, they get stuck in a huge, scrolling row on the right. I suspect these small tweaks will be attended to as the development progresses. Other than that, it’s a real nice app, a pleasure to use—definitely fills a gap with internet TV/videos.

One more thing…on Mac OS X, once you start downloading clips, the default file location is in your Videos folder, which makes them accessible via Front Row. Nice!

Great job to everyone at the Participatory Culture Foundation!

Dave Werner, renaissance man

MC D. Werner annouces his departure from school…in the form of a rhyme. Final grade for this novel approach: A+

So, if the man is out there listening, give this young buck a job.

Nam June Paik

Nam June Paik, revolutionary media artist, passed away on Sunday. Although I don’t know too much about his work, I was able to see his exhibit at the Guggenheim in 2001 and it truly blew my top off.

Yuki's Sentimental Journey

^{via D&AD}

This video will blow your mind. Technically perplexing, but more than that its beauty is subtle and endearing. Nicest clip I’ve seen in a while.

Moving images…Moving

German art students take the moving image to a new level by packing up a suitcase with a projector (and other items), sticking it on the side of a subway car. The result are projected images on the tunnel walls for subway riders to look at. I couldn’t help but wonder what would happen if anyone tried that here in New York. You’d probably end up in jail or on a terrorist watchlist.

Moving Canvas is a project by Frédéric Eyl, Gunnar Green and Richard The.

Here’s the link to the parasite clip. Also, check out the aperture piece too – really cool stuff!

When the Day Breaks, a short film

I just caught a wonderful animated short film on Sundance Channel called When The Day Breaks, directed by Amanda Forbis and Wendy Tilby. Made from pencil and paint on photocopies, the visuals are nothing short of breathtaking, much attention to detail, and quite dreamy. the story is fantastic as well, I enjoyed seeing how two seemingly random lives are so interconnected (as all of our lives potentially are).

“A rooster has his last biscuit for breakfast and goes grocery shopping. A pig prepares her breakfast (potato peelings, with the potatoes thrown in the trash) and discovers she needs more milk. Their paths cross, a lemon falls into the sewer, and both lives are changed.”

Check it out for yourself of Sundance Channel:

• Saturday 09.10.05 at 05:15p
• Thursday 09.15.05 at 11:15p
• Tuesday 09.27.05 at 05:45p

Also, here’s the IMDb page for When The Day Breaks.

Reverse balanced rock destruction (zen)

Danny Brown, of Sensei Studios shows us the power of the zen master’s mind as he reverses time, destroys balanced rock sculptures, and walks backwards/forwards. Check out the video of Balancing Point at IFILM.

I get the impression that gems like this, with their simplicity and grace, is probably why the person that invented the paperclip might be more successful at the end of the day than one who invents complicated machinery.

Canis Interstellarhydroencephalitis

⬆ This is a strange video clip sent to me from this freak.

UPDATE:
I just figured out that this is Rubber Johnny by (rock*star) Chris Cunningham.

Johnny is a hyperactive, shape-shifting mutant child, kept locked away in a basement. With only his feverish imagination and his terrified dog for company, he finds ways to amuse himself in the dark. Rubber Johnny is the latest creation from the UK’s most imaginative filmmaker, Chris Cunningham. Featuring music by legendary electronic composer, Aphex Twin, this nightmarish and hallucinatory experimental short film is accompanied by 40 pages of drawings and photographs – Cunningham’s first published book of original artwork.
