Four Hands
I found this on fukung and have no idea who did this pixel-by-pixel masterpiece. If you do, drop us a line and we’ll update the post with a proper credit link.
UPDATE 3/2/2011: Carol-ann wrote in and informed us that this image was created by Uno Moralez. Check out his site for loads more pixel-y, trippy goodness.

Match & Flame
Bizarre, alien and just plain weird. Just think, this happens every time you strike a match. Existence takes on a whole new dimension of wonder when seen from the perspective of 2000 frames-per-second macro-vision. Thanks, UltraSlo!
My only complaint is that there’s no soundtrack, I feel like the right tune could take this video to a whole new level of great. Anyone out there got any ideas? If so, rip the video, put it to a tune you think appropriate, post it to the ‘Tubes or Vimeo (making sure, of course, to give full credit to UltraSlo for the original source material), and send us the link to where we can see it. I’ll feature the best one, right here on the site, and serve up some linkage of your choosing. The deadline for submissions is 12am ET this coming Monday the 24th (that means late Sunday night). You dig?

Strange Arrangements
WeAreSeventeen put this animation together as, “a series of moving sculptures that take inspiration from the great surrealists like dali…These objects are mechanical but at the same time organic in their movements. They are a collection of textures, objects and movements that create images that we wanted to see…more” I’m diggin’ it.

My little piece of privacy
Niklas Roy, who describes himself as “an inventor of useless things”, created this robotic curtain to shield himself, “from nosey looks of pedestrians passing by.” Simple and engaging – I dig it!
Found via the infinitely excellent dvdp.

Surface Detail
Tom Beddard, a.k.a. subBlue, brings the fractal goodness and for this, we are thankful. He’s currently, “working on a WebGL 3D fractal renderer that will let you explore structures like this in real time.” Sweet.

The Arctic Circle
“Brutal and unforgiving – the Arctic Circle – where all that grows in abundance is….temptation.”
A cautionary tale told in stop-motion animation by talented young filmmaker Kevin Parry with music from Ihor Dawidiuk. And, hey, Tim Burton loved it (he said, “it’s like a cross between 2001 and Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer”) so you probably will too, no? Great work, Kevin, can’t wait to see what you create next!

Hitchhiker’s Choice
Kristofer Ström, of Baltimore Clap fame, created this video on a whiteboard (no undo/redo!) for Swedish house-outfit Minilogue‘s 2006 Hitchhiker’s Choice EP. It’s trippy, strange and a blast to watch…I just wish it was in HD. Well done, Kris!
A big thanks to ‘that_fisher_kid’ for sending it in...CHEERS!

Stylo
“Love, electricity, shockwave central pummel on the motherboard, yes. Push up, overload, legendary heavy glow, sunshine, thunder roll, keep it all together. Yes the lantern burn, burn it easy and broadcast, so raw and neatly; thunder roll, sunshine, work it out-out-out-out-out-out-out-out-out-out-out-out…”
Just another great music video for a Gorillaz tune from Plastic Beach. Directed by Jamie Hewlett with animation duties handled by the always-awesome Passion Pictures. Gotta love the Bruce Willis cameo, too – it’s like the whipped cream and cherry on top of the sundae. Enjoy!

Infinite Teddy-Bears
Thanks again, cyriak, who, as always, handled both the audio and video production duties. Filmed on location at the Worthing sea-front with some slight touching-up/post-processing in After Effects. ;)
