Hehe, nice one by David Helbich! Hey David, I am waiting for “blown away” ;-)
(Since this fun clip was posted by David originally on Facebook I had to grab and upload it to YT to share it with you. Facebook is much more a closed system than it seams like. Don’t waste your content there.)

I know that there are tons of youtube music re-edits/sample/collabo clips out there but this guy Kutiman www.thru-you.com (nice Youtube rippoff pagedesign) is really unglaublich!! The funk piece is insaine and “Just a lady” made me cry. It could go to top 10 like that. And don’t forget to check the credits to listen to the original seperate takes!

Good by music industry! Game over!

Beautiful video piece by Stefan Panhans. I remember to have seen it at Transmediale 2006. But you have to understand german to get the point though. (The ad by sevenload sucks btw. I wouldn’t like to see my work in that context …)

Congrats to Long John S.!

A new piece by Pablo Valbuena. This is a new and much better dimension to the media facade discussion. Very nice! Good job Pablo, see you around.

Check the video!

Mark Jenkins in collaboration with Greenpeace. Nice one!

Evan discovered the “Spray Close Spray Extender”, wich is actually a commercial version of the G.R.L. High Writer. Lol, that’s just crazy.
Hmm … for what else could I use it … ;-)

Hey Evan and James, if you guys were just using copyright and patents…. ;-)

I was not allowed to embed this nice video but fortunately I know how to write in hyper text markup language. When you click with your mouse pointer at the following uniform resource locator adress starting with hypertext transfer protocol your web browser (A web browser is a software application which enables a user to display and interact with text, images, videos, music and other information typically located on a Web page at a website on the World Wide Web or a local area network.) will hyperlink you automatically to the movie. Isn’t that great? (Next time I ll explain what YouTube is.)

Sorry for waisting your time. ;-)

And again a commercial in computer game adaption style. Hmm… Although I’ve never seen a first person soccer game on PC or console so far. Had anyone every tried to write a first person soccer game? I am not so much into sports games but a networked first person soccer with a Wii-mote on your foot should be fun. ;-)

Another fake on the realism topic. :-)

‘Warcraft’ Sequel Lets Gamers Play A Character Playing ‘Warcraft’

The Landreform carousel yesterday was great fun. In the beginning the fire was really big and we thought for a moment the event might end up in SUPERFLEX style. ;-)
Best piece I’ve seen so far at BB5.

Some more pics on trendbeheer.com through comments by kolonel. Thx!

MUTO a wall-painted animation by BLU from blu on Vimeo.

Another car piece by the artist group SUPERFLEX.
I like their works a lot. The Burning Car is quite symbolic for rising the oil price and the hungry 3rd world. And it fits very well to Berlin. Since some years a group of left radical burn cars in the street regularly.

A beautiful project by Olaf Val. Climbing on a screen while depending on the changing pixels is a very physical way of interacting with the digital space. I like Olafs work a lot. He has a nice series of screen pieces and is quite involved in physical computing (arduino workshops) and more. Thanks for the invitation to Kassel, Olaf! See you around!

Full documentation of Digigripper PDF.

“A human sized 5 x 7 dot-matrix display becomes a climbing wall. The individual display dots protrude from the wall and thus form steps and handles to allow the climber to hold on to the display. However, if one uses an unilluminated dot, this dot will cave in, causing the climber to slip and to tumble to the ground. Prior to climbing the display one has to memorise a continuous series of letters, as this is the only way to change the dots one is holding on to in time for the next change of letters. In doing so one can key into a terminal a short sentence. Whoever manages to hold onto the display the longest is the winner. The longer one holds on to the display the quicker the change of letters.”

Yesterday I went to see the 8.1 Pechakucha Berlin at this year DMY organised by my good friend Joachim and Iepe (famous for chess boxing in DE). I enjoyed an excellent list of 20:20 talks. Best I did like the live presentation of Oskar Zieta. Hilarious! Two welded metal plates blown up to a chair. I like that a lot. Just think of all the possibilities.

Another car commerical implementing computer game elements.
Seems they pic up on each other 1 2. Check out the arrows. A variation of Speed.

thx for the link Jonah!
