I met the Walrus

In 1969, a 14-year-old Beatle fanatic named Jerry Levitan snuck into John Lennon's hotel room in Toronto and convinced him to do an interview. 38 years later, Levitan, director Josh Raskin and illustrator James Braithwaite have collaborated to create an animated short film using the original interview recording as the soundtrack. A spellbinding vessel for Lennon's boundless wit and timeless message, I Met the Walrus was nominated for the 2008 Academy Award for Animated Short. (description of the work from Imetthewalrus on youtube.com)

8-bit Trip

Airborne

During the Siggraph, Shinoda Lab along with researchers from University of Tokyo introduced a new discovery they call Airborne Ultrasound Tactile Display. The display radiates airborne ultrasound, which produces high-fidelity pressure fields onto the user's hands. It is designed to provide a tactile feedback in 3D free space. 

Random

This is so fun to watch, people actually put time doing this kind of thing. Stickers on an escalator, a low-fi piece by Kama. It's practically like making your own animation flip book, but it doesn't require you to constantly flip it to show people.  via Wooster Collective.

Urban Activity

Binary Waves by LAb[au] from The Nonsense Society on Vimeo.

"fLUX binary waves" is a fantastic urban installation project by LAb[au] that measures the infrastructural and communicational flow in its surrounding area. Basically, the installation would take in all information including the amount of passerby, cars, electromagnetic fields from radio, mobile phone, etc through infrared sensors and project it back with its built in microprocessors. Thus, it will define the frequency and amplitude the rotation and display it as an interplay of kinetics, light (colors) and sounds. Everything is recorded in real time and sets each person as an element of the installation.
