Animation, Art, and Other Shiny Things
This music video is just plain fun. The animation has an echo of the 70’s pop-art animation walking the line of psychedelia (ala yellow submarine or sally cruikshank) and is driven along by a peppy techno track. You can’t help but root for the protagonist, and the ending is perfect.
This one’s going on the ‘shiny things’ list.
Animation by Ninja Tune.
Created in 1978 by the incomparable Sally Cruikshank.
This excellent example of projection mapping is from November 2011 and celebrates the 100th anniversary of Seikei Gakuen (Seikei University) in Kichijoji, Japan (near tokyo). The backdrop is one of the campus buildings (though i don’t know which building it is), and is 20 by 70 meters.
