Video: Music + Art - Squarepusher 'Dark Steering'

Mesmerising and yet indulgent? Video clip for UK artist Squarepusher.
Watch @3:30 as the visuals change.

-----

Electronic musicians can be terrible live acts: What’s the point of seeing someone stand on stage behind a laptop, hitting a return key? No wonder then that artists such as Daft Punk and Justice amp up their shows with elaborate visual displays. Tom Jenkinson, aka Squarepusher, is another such performer, and unlike the rest, he does the music and the visuals himself.

Video: Invisible Sound Sonars - 'Waves' Art Installation

Via TrendHunter

The Daniel Palacios ‘Waves’ exhibit is an installation worthy of every science center out there, as it takes the invisibility cloak off of sound.

It does so with a string that is connects two motorized chambers. This string is extremely sensitive and reacts by moving at the slightest movement by any surrounding figures

All Eyes On You - window installation

First edition of Britzpetermanns shop window installation project.

The series is starting with “All Eyes On You”, a bunch of different sized eyes who follow the passers-by. Simple concept, but the effect was immense. The passers-by loved it especially the kids react with the installation without any inhibitions.

Check britzpetermann.com for more information.

1000 stickers & 1000 kids - The Obliteration Room

The Obliteration Room… totally cool.

Via: thisiscolossal.com & GOMA

This space has been transformed into a series of domestic—style rooms, reminiscent of the average Australian home, filled with furniture and objects painted entirely white. This functions as a blank canvas that becomes ‘obliterated’ over the course of the exhibition through the application of brightly coloured dot stickers.

This series of images shows ‘The obliteration room‘ in its pristine state before the exhibition opened, along with the application of the very first dot stickers.

You can revel in ‘The obliteration room‘ during ‘Yayoi Kusama: Look Now, See Forever‘, on display at GOMA until 11 March 2012. You can also read more about Yayoi Kusama and the exhibition at ourdedicated website.

Found: The Deleted City

Geocities is Dead. Long live Geocities.

------

The installation is an interactive visualisation of the 650 gigabyte Geocities backup made by the Archive Team on October 27, 2009. It depicts the file system as a city map, spatially arranging the different neighbourhoods and individual lots based on the number of files they contain.

Around the turn of the century, Geocities had tens of millions of "homesteaders" as the digital tennants were called and was bought by Yahoo! for three and a half billion dollars. Ten years later in 2009, as other metaphors of the internet (such as the social network) had taken over, and the homesteaders had left their properties vacant after migrating to Facebook, Geocities was shutdown and deleted.
