March 11th, 2010bigassmessage.com is the online toy of the day! You can write simple messages and pick a style for it and send the link around. It’s simple as that. Of course I like this message much better. Made by Bjorn.

Grindin’
March 4th, 2010This is the music video for Grindin’ by Nobody Beats The Drum. It’s a very impressive stop motion piece made with 4085 photos, yet very simple. The music is … well not my cup of tea and you might want to turn down the volume. The making of video is actually quite entertaining.
Sketch-a-Move
March 3rd, 2010Sketch-a-Move is a project by Anab Jain and Louise Klinker. They actually did this a few years ago. It’s a concept for a toy car that allows you to explore the unique relationships between small surface doodles and actual physical movements. If you draw a circle on the top of the toy car, it will move in a circle. If you draw a complicated spiral, the car will move in a spiral. They don’t explain how it actually works or could work, but it sure looks like fun.

March 3rd, 2010Overpainted Photographs by Gerhard Richter is an ongoing series where he overpaints his own snapshots. I’ve posted some before, but I still like them. If you’re in Tokyo you can go and see some of them at the WAKO Works of Art till this Saturday.

Page Texture
March 2nd, 2010Page Texture by Harm Van Den Dorpel. I know that it’s only a multi-directional motion blur applied to a screenshot of a Facebook page, but I like it.

March 2nd, 2010AntiVJ made this light and sound installation called “Tour des Convoyeurs” during the Mutek festival in Montreal. We’ve seen video projections on buildings before, but the look and feel of this one is very nice.
