Pillen, Lebensmittelfarbe, Makro und Timelapse

Videographenporn de luxe. Und Pillen. Bunte Pillen.

Discover the close up landscape of absorption. Observe the magical view point up close and personal to something perhaps ignored in everyday life. A view that uses my own handheld camera movements combined with timelapse footage of pills and tablets taking on red food dye. All the photography was taken with macro extension tubes and a 50mm prime on a crop sensor.
I took a look at what was out there in the world of timelapse and found landscapes, lots of them.
For me landscapes will always be a staple diet of the timelapses world, but I wanted to discover a new landscape. So I made my own with what I had lying around the house. I think the final results are really very interesting, discovering what can be observed from a macro viewpoint. The handheld movement gives it the feeling of happening in realtime, even though these shots were taken over time frames of 1 to 180 minutes.

Celluloid Warfare ii

Mag ich sehr, so was.

parts of insects are destroyed through the projector and a complex soundtrack aims to create a heightened audio visual experience.. my thoughts at the moment center around synesthesia, specifically where movements are translated to an abstract sound. I like very much to play with this relationship between movement, sound and the human senses.

Ein Moshpit Simulator


(via Marco)

Keine Ahnung, auf welchen von irgendwelchen Daten gestützten Erkenntnissen dieser Moshpit Simulator von Matt Bierbaum basiert, oder ob diese dafür überhaupt herangezogen wurden. Ein nettes Spielzeug ist es allemal.

A JavaScript implementation of the simulations presented in the paper Collective Motion of Moshers at Heavy Metal Concerts. More details are available at Itai Cohen’s group website including videos of mosh pits, full simulations, and a brief description.

Play around. The buttoms above set up interesting initial conditions while the sliders allow you to control the parameters of the model. The keys WASD allow you to apply external forces to active MASHers. The graphs, as listed from the left, are a time average of the angular momentum, the current angular momentum, and the speed distribution. Read the help for more information.

INSA Gif-iti in Sydney

INSA war in Sydney und hat dort – na klar – eines seiner Giffitis gemacht. Ich wollte erst „hinterlassen“ schreiben, aber das wäre ja Blödsinn, weil das Dingen auf der Wand ja natürlich nicht so wunderbar wackelt. Deshalb: was fehlt: Graffitis, die in echt auf Wänden blinken.

Schönschrift und Mozart

Seb Lester hat einen nicht zu übersehenden Faible für Kalligraphie.

BlackLetter was used throughout Europe from about 1150 until the end of the 17th century. One of my current preoccupations is developing a set of modern BlackLetter capitals that are highly legible, in BlackLetter terms, and yet retain the richness and beauty inherent in this ancient category of letterform. From time to time I will film clips like this to record my progress.

Graffiti während der ägyptischen Revolution

Jehane Noujaim möchte mit „The Square“ einen Film über die ägyptische Revolution zum Ende bringen. Der lief zwar in Rohfassung schon auf dem Sundance und wurde dort von allen Seiten hochgelobt, aber Noujaim hätte gerne eine aktualisierte, endgültige Produktion. Will heißen: das Dingen soll noch mal auf das eingehen, was seit dem passiert ist, als der Film eigentlich gedreht wurde. Außerdem soll es noch mal in die Postproduktion. Dafür gibt es ein Kickstarter Projekt, welches mit $100.000 nicht gerade tiefpreisig angesetzt wurde, aber nun gut, sieht momentan auch nicht so aus, dass das zu schaffen wäre.

Teil dieses Films allerdings ist die Rolle der Street Art während der ägyptischen Revolution und genau diesen Teil würde ich schon ganz gerne mal in aller Ausführung sehen wollen. „The Revolution Will Not Be Televised, It Will Be Written On The Walls.“

More on Street Art in The Square:
Graffiti began to appear on walls around Egypt during the January 25 uprising 2 years ago. Prior to that, there was little to no street art in all of Egypt. But now, the walls of Cairo’s streets are covered in so many layers of graffiti and posters, grime and fumes, that studying the layers is like reading a book on everything these walls have witnessed. The uprising, the downfall, the unity and the coming apart are all shown in street art pieces – pieces that speak for those that do not have a voice.

Despite being perceived by the majority of Egyptians to be „pointless scribbling“ on the walls, artists who got their start during the revolution have been commissioned for magazine cover art, have given lectures and been featured in documentaries about their work, including ours – The Square, an on-the-ground look at revolutionaries throughout the Tahrir uprisings.

No piece of art can exist in a vacuum. Out of the revolution sprung so many vibrant expressive pieces of humanity.
