Big Bang Big Boom

The latest large-scale-abstract-animated-graffiti-story-telling masterpiece from Blu. He describes it as, “an unscientific point of view on the beginning and evolution of life…and how it could probably end.”

Start from the Beginning

Berlin-based sculptor/animator A.N. Fischer created this video to examine ‘the relationship between [a] simulated image and its physical manifestation’.  The result is lots of geometric, trippy, techy, haunting visuals that are constantly evolving.  Good stuff.

Here’s some images of the sculpture in question.  Music by Egyptrixx.

Kush

“Still I am,
Tighter than the pants on Will.I.Am
Back-throw, back still, I have a pound in my backpack
Next to where the swishas at;
Smokin’ presidential
Got some bubba, I give me that:
Need it for my cataracts.” -Snoop Dogg

From Dre’s upcoming album Detox, set to be released in 2011. Can’t wait.

Skeleton Boy

Easily one of my favorite music videos. Catchy tune courtesy of Friendly Fires, excellent concept courtesy of Clemens Habicht

Refraction

Jesse Zanzinger had the fantastic idea to shoot a whole bunch of stuff through oil and water.  I think you’ll enjoy the result.

Be sure to hang in there ‘til you see the numbers.

Village of the Birds

The small village of Kuskoy, Turkey is one of the only remaining places on Earth that utilizes a whistled language as a means of communication. As you can see, the villagers prefer to whistle to one another when it comes to long distances, as it helps keep them connected to one another (and not to mention, it’s cheaper).

Fluid Dress

Equal parts innovative fashion, bright colors, excellent music (provided by Ratatat...yeah, those guys) and tight, creative editing – this video by Casual Profanity is an absolute treat to behold.

Nature by Numbers

Cristóbal Vila is a very, very talented guy.  Watch this and you’ll never look a seashells, sunflowers or dragonflies the same way again.

Dim the lights and set aside a few minutes to really enjoy this one.
