Friday Videos - March 27th, 2015

posted March 27, 2015 #

How's your week? Mine's been great. Maybe it's the season change but it seems like there's some serious optimism around these parts. Always good to take note of that feeling when you have it. But I digress! Enjoy these distracting videos.
  • Wilderness Promo One - I will continue to talk about this new Makeup and Vanity Set record, Wilderness, and the short film, Eidolon, it accompanies. Listen to Hand in Hand for a taste of what's to come.
  • Fritz Learns to Catch Compilation #1 - I was crying laughing while watching this. This poor dog has a heart of gold.
  • Puppy vs. Orange - at some point I found myself immersed in the world of Maymo and Penny, two adorable dogs having their antics posted to Youtube. I suggest you dive all the way in.
  • Subconscious Cinema - great compilation of dreams from a variety of movies. Be warned.. it does contain some graphic imagery. The clip from 'Un Chien Andalou' at 35seconds will haunt you. The rest is great.
  • Made By: Chris Coyier - I've been a huge fan of CSS Tricks for a long time and it's nice to hear this interview with Mr. Coyier. Seems like an incredibly awesome dude.
  • Album Covers Come Alive - this falls on the side of absurd and ridiculous but it's mostly impressive for it's sheer length. It's insane how much work was put into this!
  • TIE Fighter - I don't geek out on Star Wars fan creations that much but the artistic style of this short film is something I, personally, rarely see these days.
  • Darkel - L, 2014 - I don't know if you are familiar with Darkel, aka Jean-Benoit Dunckel, aka half of AIR - but I had forgotten about this project and was quite pleased to see this crazy long datamosh video pop up with his work (and a new EP).
Need more? Nerd out on this 1 Minute Physics Video about computer colors or this adorable Mom and Daughter Dance... you know, because Ellen.

Have a great weekend.

Tempescope

posted March 27, 2015 #

The Tempescope is part art display, part technology project. At first glance, I assumed the device would gather weather information from the web and then create an artful version of it inside the device... but upon looking through the documentation of the Open Source version - OpenTempescope - it seem that you control if via your iOS app directly. Maybe that means you can do anything with it you like!

All and all, it seems like the possibilities are a bit open for the Tempescope. It's certainly cool looking and that's a helluva start.

...he was hospitalised and became the subject of a series of medical experiments to test his eating capacity, in which, among other things, he ate a meal intended for 15 people in a single sitting, ate live cats, snakes, lizards and puppies, and swallowed an eel whole without chewing. Despite his unusual diet, he was of normal size and appearance, and showed no signs of mental illness other than what was described as an apathetic temperament. via @black_cat_belle

Sofia Coppola's Dreamscapes

posted March 26, 2015 #

This examination of Sofia Coppola's Dreamscapes is less about the actual dreams of the characters portrayed in her work and more about the actual dreaming and lost nature of the characters. It's pretty compelling to see this consistent behavior from all her films put together this way - there's a nice consistency and it certainly takes a more upbeat path as it progresses, a welcome optimism.
