New York city is the background for this a nostalgic and fast paced story about a character, a creator, who trough-out the video builds a machine heart that represents love. He fills this heart with super magnetic memory fields containing default memories (it is the problematic of one person, that represents many at the same time), only to have it burned at the end. Better kept than lived. “but I’m in love with you, want to stay in love with you…so I’m going to live alone”
Talking a little about technicalities, we can say that no light bulb was turned on, no machine/gadget was plugged in. Everything was lit and came to life through projection mapping and the animations that where created for all scenes. Everything was shot with a 7D, and a gopro Hero.
The video was done in two months by two great friends, motion designer and animator Gabriel Pulecio aka lustix.com who directed the piece and digital artist Lorena Kraus.

Metalloid Trooper is the first attempt to combine projection mapping and inflatable sculpting. The inflatable sculpture model was designed in 3D to be later translated into fabric and then put together as a inflatable piece that stands on its own and becomes a screen. This 3 dimensional screen is a provoking surface for the development of a series of animations. The animation explores different materials and textures along with some light effects that are carefully synked with an audio track to create an intense and perceptual immersive experience. The result was striking.
This is a quick edit with footage taken with several iPhones at the first appearance of the piece at a 3rd Ward Inflatable Sculpture Show in April, 2011. Brooklyn, NY.

Of course data is continually changing, updating and refreshing. Data doesn’t die or is born, it only transforms.
The implications of these are at once thrilling and worrying. Data can be generated so easily and flow beyond our control too; it will follow you everywhere you go. Framestore, NYC.

If people expected most conversations to be untruthful, talking and communicating with others would require distraction and misdirection to acquire reliable information.

A series of dessertic spatial landscapes. Igneous polygons, which form vertex flows, when erupted, affect the lunar phases that are the result of looking at the illuminated half of the moon from different viewing geometries and they are not caused by the shadow of the Earth or umbra falling on the Moon’s surface.
The most common type of first-order discontinuity is the transform fault. It appears where rigid planes slide past each other. Experimental shapes produced for a internal pitch. Superfad, NYC.

I have a question about the effects of magnetic fields on light. Since magnetic force moves charged particles and photons are oppositely charged particles would a magnetic field that is strong enough bend or refract light?
