Wildlife Analysis

Some amazing photographs by Bryan Graf, who uses a very unique technique of developing his film, which results in surreal and dreamy photos for his series 'Wildlife Analysis.'

Quantum Leap

Thomas de Rijk with this stunning music video for Slugabed's "Quantum Leap." Space, triangles, and cats. Can't get much better than that.

From their website: Inspired by the Sun Ra film baring the same name, we set off asking an international group of fine and applied artists to submit work channeling a contemporary interest in outer space and the creative exploration of all things far out.

Beautiful words. Even more beautiful works.

I'm buying this zine today.

From Me To You

Jamie Beck, a brilliant photographer, is creating these images that are now being called cinemagraphs. These are essentially animated gifs of a photograph. They capture a very small window in time, and show the beauty that each of those windows can hold. She updates her blog, From Me To You all the time with these amazing little cinemagraphs.

POGO

Been seeing more of these guys around the web lately. I came across them a while ago, I don't remember how. They're mostly known for their awesome work in typography, but they do illustration, branding, identity, and more, which is equally impressive. I could post so much crap by these guys, but I feel like you should just check out their website and see for yourself.

OFFF

A little video for the design festival, OFFF, done by Cocoe, a great animation firm with an extensive portfolio.

Music Five

So I thought it would be interesting to do a 'Top 25 Most Played' playlist. I look at my Top 25 and I think it pretty much sums up my taste in music. I also think there's some good stuff on there that maybe you'll like. But because 8tracks.com are nazi's, it became Top 24 Most Played. Oh well. I'm also including the amount of times it's been played. Which I thought was also interesting. Enjoy.
