iPhone Custom Restore and Bootup Images

May 12, 2009 By 3 Comments

hot-and-toplessWell folks, I just followed the iClarified guide to jailbreak my iPhone, and now I’ll be able to take and stream live videos from it. So eventually when I get it working you can look for more video updates from on location as I travel around and stuff.

One of the things that you can do is set up custom startup and restore images, and I spent a lot of time searching for some good ones. So these are the ones that I had saved in case I wanted to use them. The blog here seems like as good a place as any to put them.

Khoda – The Amazing Painted Film

February 20, 2009 By 2 Comments

khodaThanks to Ben Huh for this little tip. (Follow him on Twitter)

The best way to describe this film is directly from the author’s mouth:

My graduation film Khoda.

What if you watch a film and whenever you pause it, you face a painting? This idea inspired Reza Dolatabadi to make Khoda. Over 6000 paintings were painstakingly produced during two years to create a five minutes film that would meet high personal standards. Khoda is a psychological thriller; a student project which was seen as a ‘mission impossible’ by many people but eventually proved possible!

Plasma Cutting the GeekBrief Logo

January 25, 2009 By 16 Comments

plasma-cutting-the-geekbrief-logoOk. This post is going to get me in big trouble with Greg Lewis. I still owe him a piece of art from like 2 years ago. Yet Cali Lewis (no relation to Greg) asks me if I could cut the GeekBrief logo out on the PlasmaCAM for her and I do it in like 48 hours. Well Greg, I only have one thing to say… when you’re as hot as Cali, I’ll finish your art in 48 hours too!

All kidding aside though, Cali and Neal have been waiting patiently for months since they first saw my machine sitting in the garage, and I finally got off my lazy butt and decided to cut the GeekBrief.TV logo out in celebration of their 500th show! So, if any of you would like to watch a little video about cutting things out of steel with a giant robot, here you go.

The 1,000 Gallon Jeep Waterfall Art Machine

November 26, 2008 By 2 Comments

Jeep Waterfall ArtNow this is a fantastic piece of marketing. And it works, just look at this blog post! Jeep is getting some free advertising…

The technology behind this waterfall is very similar to how an ink jet printer works. Essentially, thousands of nozzles are configured individually to allow pictures to be drawn with falling water. The results are simply awesome.

The Massive Business Card Gallery – Over 250 Amazing Business Cards

October 17, 2008 By 13 Comments

puppets-business-cardI’ve long been a fan of the business card. I think it is a serious art form because you try and say so much about a person or organization with so little room to work with. It takes a creative genius to really make a fantastic impression with a business card, and after all… that’s what they’re all about!

Since I’ve been collecting these in a directory for years, i decided to upload the entire gallery right here. If I ever come across more, I’ll add them. But until then, have fun wasting your entire afternoon on these!

Now, I’ve never uploaded this many images to a single post (in fact, this may be a world record!!!), and I’m sure this article is going to put some serious load on the server because so many images have to be downloaded by each visitor. Hopefully no one Diggs this thing, cause the server is going to die for sure!

Seriously! 250+ thumbnails on every single page load… well, let’s just say I’m glad I work at a hosting company! Cause I may be needing a whole lotta bandwidth real soon… Thank you Layered Tech!

Amazing Elephant Artists – Yeah You Read That Right!

April 14, 2008 By 13 Comments

Painting ElephantOk. This was e-mailed to me, and when I first saw the title I almost didn’t watch it. I thought it was going to be some sort of gimmicky video featuring exploited elephants or something.

But I went ahead and watched it. Wow! I’m simply stunned! I’m not going to spoil it for you guys, but you aren’t going to believe what you see…

4 Incredible Human Video Game Performances

March 20, 2008 By 5 Comments

Human TetrisSome of you may have seen one of these videos before, as they’ve been watched a total of like 10 million times, but most people have not see all four of them. The choreography and coordination to create these videos are both incredibly creative and extremely well executed. A little about the project:

GAME OVER is one of the art projects developed by the Swiss artist Guillaume REYMOND (NOTsoNOISY creative agency). It consists of a series of collaborative animation movies which revive some of the very first video games. The pixels are replaced by a group of real human-beings that are moving from seat to seat in a theatre during about 4 to 6 hours. Each “pixel” has its own rules and decides what s/he wants to do for each picture. Once all these pictures are turned into a short animation movie, a giant human-scale video game unfolds “live”.
