Futures won the 1st price of the backup.clipaward in Weimar, Germany ... also saw some great shorts there ... all in all a nice festival :)
I'm back from New York! I had a great time meeting lots of nice people, visiting museums and galleries, having summery weather ... First Toci's pictures, mine will follow ...
Just came back from Hamburg, visting Bitfilm, really nice people, great museums ... only the weather was depressing ... Otherwise this could be the town I would leave Jena for ...
Two of my movies and my first generative artefact painting where shown at the Phyletic Museum Jena. They have been very supportive over the years and I studied a year biology in the institute nearby ... Smooth ambient music by Inannia for this convivial night.
Finally the Quicktime of appearing disappearance is online, as the soundtrack by Freefarm is finished! The fine details of the movies, eg. the runners leaving colorful trails, are hard to see, even in this huge preview resolution ... so be sure to check out the finished HD-DVD "Advanced Beauty" to enjoy it in full quality and surround sound. The project is scheduled for end 2007, be sure to come back for details.
I was at this years Siggraph in San Diego (USA) as a journalist for Digital Production. I met a lot of nice people there, some I knew for years but haven't met in reality ... I wished I had seen more of the city itself, so now I'm one of the persons visiting a places far away without being able to tell something about it :)
My new small movie dive painting #1 is shown at Europe's largest LED-Screen (50 x 4 meters!) in Berlin, Germany. Get off at U-Bahn U6, station Kochstrasse and you'll see the video at of the top of the Axel Springer Building. It was commissioned by Sleek Magazine, will be shown until mid september and can be downloaded from this site in a lower resolution.
Another small project is on it's way. It's called appearing disappearance and was commissioned by Universal Everything as part of the HD-DVD project Advanced Beauty. It will be soundtracked by Freefarm, more details and QuickTime in the next weeks.
My new website finally went online today. It was outlined by the design god Toci and coded by TYPO3 god Joern Bock based on my despotical wishes . Thanks a million guys :)
