This video ‘Chronotopic Anamorphosis’ is quite simple but the effect is just amazing. It’s part of André Mintz his Marginalia Project. He wrote this piece of software with Processing, which can slice up a video feed horizontally in real-time and display those pieces with a one frame delay. It’s based on Zbigniew Rybczynski’s “The Fourth Dimension”.
Make sure you see the effect when he opens the door!
‘Rainbow In Your Hand’ is a flipbook by Masashi Kawamura.

This is short clip from a live set by Etienne de Crécy, a French house producer, during the Transmusicales festival in Rennes, France, last year. 10 years ago he was quite popular with his Super Discount album, but apparently the French filtered house is still not dead … But the only reason to watch this clip is his stage show, or to be more precise the projections. He stands inside some sort of half transparent Rubik’s Cube on which some very nice animations are shown. Exyzt, an architectural collective form Paris, was responsible for this unique light show. (Their website doesn’t seem to be available now.)
So watch it now and don’t forget to turn down the sound!
On May 31th 2008, Nike projected a choreographed slideshow of China’s Golden Athletes on 4 columns of the CCTV building in Beijing. Three of the columns featured the athletes in their competitive stance, to reflect their readiness and determination, while the fourth column featured the graphic motif from the competition gear, focusing on “China”.
It’s quite impressive what Nike already did in Beijing in the anticipation of the olympics, apparently they really recognized the fact that these olympics will get more attention than any other one.

Magnetic Movie is a film by Semiconductor. They made magnetic fields visible in a very nice way, 3D CGI at its best, while scientists from NASA’s Space Sciences Laboratory excitedly describe their discoveries. Watch it!
EDIT: To set things straight, this video is a 3D CGI visualisation of how magnetic fields could look like. It is not real, just a mix of video footage with computer generated imagery.
Here is the full version.
Gamin (rascal) & Enter, both by Xavier Barrade. I really like his animation style, remember evil Gates?
Reuben Sutherland printed some short video clips on vinyl, just a few frames. Then he plays them with his turntable and films it again to use in his VJ work. The effect is quite good. VinylVideo is some other project where they really encoded video in the vinyl grooves, even more impressive.
