Mataerial Introduction from Mataerial on Vimeo.

MATAERIAL is the result of the collaborative research between Petr Novikov, Saša Jokić from the Institute for Advanced Architecture of Catalonia (IAAC) and Joris Laarman Studio. IAAC tutors representing Open Thesis Fabrication Program provided their advice and professional expertise. During the course of the research we developed a brand new digital fabrication method and a working prototype that can open a door to a number of practical applications. The method that we call Anti·gravity Object Modeling has a Patent-Pending status.

PIXEL HEAVEN 2013 - Retro entertaiment days from Loniek on Vimeo.

No computers were harmed during making this video ;).

Making of vimeo.com/65763564

Short made for Retro Entertainment Days 15-16/06/2013 / CDQ / Warszawa (PL) - pixelheaven.pl.
Created by me :) - hlawka.com
Music - thevirusempire.com

Creating the film wasn’t an easy task. Preparations took well over 2 months of my free time. It is surprising, but no work was done using CGI, only good oldschool stopmotion animation and motion control slider provided by Ditogear.

Foursquare check-ins show the pulse of New York City and Tokyo from Foursquare on Vimeo.

Every day, millions of people check in on Foursquare. We took a year’s worth of check-ins in New York City and Tokyo and plotted them on a map. Each dot represents a single check-in, while the straight lines link sequential check-ins.

What you can see here represents the power of check-in data — on Foursquare, every city around the world pulses with activity around places every hour of every day.
