“Kinetik Garden” by Charlotte Bonjour.

This an amazing photo of the solar transit of the space shuttle Atlantis, made by Thierry Legault on May 12th. The duration of the transit was only 0.3 seconds and the shuttle was in orbit at a height of 260 km. You can see another photo of the solar transit of the Atlantis and Hubble telescope together here.

This is the music video for Sansula by Dominik Eulberg, directed by Dirk Rauscher. They projected animations in a forrest and then filmed them, the details shots of the flowers where done in a stopframe method with a DSLR camera. The result is excellent!

“The Seed” is a short film made by Johnny Kelly about nature’s life cycle. He used a mixture of stop motion papercraft and 2D drawn animation. It was commissioned by Adobe to promote their Creative Suite 4. On the Adobe Artists website, you can see the work of Nando Costa, work by Genevieve Gauckler & Erik Natzke and Cisma will be added later this month.

The making of “The Seed”:

Hilary Berseth made these sculpture with a lof of help from bees. He constructs a basic framework made of wire and wax, the bees add then their honeycomb. The process takes time and the outcome is not predictable.

“Saturation Transition” by Harm van den Dorpel.

Rave Nature by Maarten Vanden Eynde.

Rave Nature was build for the Festival Cement (=concrete), a cultural event that takes place every year in Maastricht. We developed a stage in the ‘Enci-forrest’ near the marl quarry of the Factory Enci. They produce concrete and are the main sponsor of the “Cement Festival”. Their 20 years lasting digging contract causes a lot of problems for the natural environment. The stage could only stay during the Festival. At night the public came by bus and was confronted with a disco lightshow and the pounding rave-song “Move your ass” by Scooter.
