Twisted Disney Princesses

From the happiest place on earth to scary as hell: Jeffrey Thomas’ Twisted Disney Princesses are fantastically wicked makeovers of Alice, Pocahantas, Mulan and Snow White.

Video: Light Graffiti

Video: Light Graffiti

The euro-trash dance moves don’t quite do it for us, but we still like Lichtfaktor’s Light Graffiti; each performer holds a light spray can with kinetic battery that is rendered live on screens.

Art: Jump and Run

M. Lahdesmaki’s Robots

Installed outside a Montreal ticket office, Moment Factory’s LED Video Wall uses tracking devices to interact with passersby in seemingly random ways, often without their knowledge.

Halo Light Writer

Halo Light Writer

Aissa Logerot’s Halo Light Writer makes tagging geeky, swapping aerosol with photons; you’ll be able to change intensity and color, but charging the battery is old-school: shake the can.

These building facade projections just keep getting better and better: 555 KubiK is a step up from the Castle, with a pair of hands and sound effects adding to the already cool 3D trickery.

2010 Death and Taxes

2010 Death and Taxes
