Beyond the Mind’s Eye – Voyage Home

March 8, 2012

The last installment in the Beyond the Mind’s Eye series.

Next series up would be the Odyssey Into the Mind’s Eye, and we will get to it eventually, but not just yet. There’s a lot of excellent animation out there now and I’m getting a bit of a backlog of great stuff in the draft queue that needs to be posted.

Beyond the Mind’s Eye – Too Far

Whoever animated this video was running some heavy fuel…


Beyond the Mind’s Eye – Transformers

January 24, 2012

This video, Transformers, is a good example of how far computer animation had advanced in the two short years between The Mind’s Eye videos (1990) and this compilation.


Beyond the Mind’s Eye – Brave New World

January 14, 2012

Brave New World is the fourth installment of Beyond the Mind’s Eye and, besides showing off some good video processing power with the geometric transformations, gives us a bit of a virtual tour through a computer. This is 1992, remember, and the Pentium CPU wasn’t released until the following year, so it’s likely patterned on a 486 mainboard – and well patterned I might say, the board is quite recognizable to an old hardware geek like me.

Incredible detail for 1992


Animusic – Pipe Dream

December 30, 2011

In 2001 Animusic, founded by Wayne Lytle, released it’s first compilation DVD. This was a refinement of the work we saw in More Bells and Whistles. What Mr Lytle had done was flip animation on it’s head by creating computer models then using music input (MIDI) to control them. Basically, he made the instruments and the music played them.
