Urban Future
BIG [ big.dk ] + Kollision [ kollision.dk ] + Schmidhuber & Partner [ schmidhuber.de ] team up to bring BIG’s vision of future urban mobility to life for AUDI at Design Miami 2011, running from November 30th to December 4th adjacent to Art Basel Miami Beach. BIG originally presented the concept as an entry for the 2010 AUDI Urban Future Award introducing a future city paved with a digital surface that liberates the streets from existing boundaries and allows for a new flexibility of public use. The 190 m2 three-dimensional LED installation provides a glimpse of the future city where the public space is shared between pedestrians and driverless cars. The entire surface would be infused with a continuous flow of information allowing for real-time interaction between vehicles and their environment. Kollision have made the real-time graphics engine and the tracking software that gets live inputs from 11 Kinect cameras above the visitors heads. Hereby the movement of passers-by are processed into a generative artwork that feeds back into the LED panels. The installation sets the stage for Audi’s showcar, Audi A2 concept, which has its U.S debut at the design fair and is dedicated to future urban mobility, capable of communicating with its environment. The exhibition car continuously emits arrows showing its driving path, navigating between visitors at the stand.

Saints Row: The Third
Saints Row stond altijd een beetje in de schaduw van Grand Theft Auto. Met Saints Row: The Third probeert uitgever THQ het duidelijk over een andere boeg te gooien. Het is uiteraard de vraag in hoeverre hij daarin is geslaagd.

Connected devices in huis: is de toekomst Over The Top?
Begin November werd het Connections Europe congres gehouden in Amsterdam. Een intrigerende combinatie van cloud services, consumentenelektronica en service provider strategie. Maar wat hebben deze drie onderwerpen in vredesnaam met elkaar te maken? Het antwoord is dat ze allemaal gaan over de stroom van connected devices in onze woonkamer. Lees meer

In this piece I was interested in mitigating the experience of 2 disparate video projections, one featuring dramatic imagery and one featuring more mundane or banal actions or scenes. These two videos are projected on the exterior of a space. A viewer sits in this space and vertical portions of each montage stream into the room and are projected on the interior walls. These narrow strips of light are not entirely readable; they are transformed into movement, color, and light. I want my viewer to reflect on the loss of meaning and discernment created by the simultaneity and fragmentation of these projections, potentially prompting reflection about contemporary culture. I also desire to create an aesthetic/formal experience for the viewer. rachelknoll.com Cast: Rachel Knoll Tags: installation , projections , projector , lights , stage , video projections , movement , transformation , imagery , mundane , abstract , experience , fragmentation , formal , aesthetic , reflection , documentation , mcad , minneapolis and light painting

_grau | 10:01 min | d 2004
_grau is a personal reflection on memories coming up during a car accident, where past events emerge, fuse, erode and finally vanish ethereally … various real sources where distorted, filtered and fitted into a sculptural structure to create not a plain abstract, but a very private snapshot of a whole life within its last seconds … Media critic Matt Hanson, author of The End of Celluloid and founder of onedotzero festival says: “_grau appeals to me because it is organo-tech. it does not deliberately ape the abstract pioneers of abstract cinema, and it is worlds away from the motion graphic masturbation of many of those enamoured by digital animation. seidel’s work is impressionistic, melding biological and emotional currents. out of amorphous shapes we make out bones, heads, a hand. a spirit leaving the body. at least, this is what i sense out of the chaos of galactic reconfigurations, neurological connections, and biological forms. this is a powerful piece of digital animation precisely because it does not feel like such, it feels emotional, epic. and once you release the background to the animation–communicating a ‘coming to terms’ with the aftermath of a car accident–you realise why.” Robert Seidel | 10:01 minutes | Germany 2004 | 2minds.de Cast: Robert Seidel and film-m Tags: abstract , experimental film , animation , car accident , crash , tableaux vivants , 3d , xray , motion capture , 3d scan , virtual sculpture , grey , leibniz , film-m , drama , art , video art , media art , robert seidel and philipp hirsch
