After a long wait, Jesús Orellana’s animated science-fiction short ROSA can now be seen in its entirety. A visually stunning short film, especially given its budget of… zero dollars. A true labor of love.

Berkley Illustration is the same team that gave us Strelka the Space Dog’s portrait. Their other portraits are not based on real animals, but they’re awesome nonetheless. Badass cheetah is badass.

Dice Sculptures

Dice Sculptures

German artist Tony Cragg has created these amazing flowing organic sculptures, using thousands of individual plastic dice as his primary medium. Just don’t try to roll them – it won’t work.

BEAT

BEAT

We have a hard time believing this wonderfully choreographed animation is Or Bar-El’s “first attempt at 3D animation.” Sure, the shapes are primitive, but the storytelling is masterful.

Red Vines Portraits

Red Vines Portraits

It’s not the only edible medium ever used, but we’d rather eat Jason Mecier’s paintings made from licorice ropes. Though we’re only eating the Red Vines, and leaving the black licorice behind.

Periodic Table of Swearing 2

Floating Orchestra

Floating Orchestra

This interactive installation by Poietic Studio lets you conduct a symphony of 19 floating spheres, held in space by jets of air. The coolest part is the iPhone-powered motion control.

Analog Vinyl Sampling

Analog Vinyl Sampling

By carefully laser-cutting, then mashing up segments of vinyl records, designer Ishac Bershan manages to make (crudely) sampled music without need for a digitizer – just an unhappy needle.
