The surreal YouTube genius of Cyriak

"My favourite is what appears to be Cyriak's most recent work, the brilliant Cycles, for which he deserves some sort of Bafta. Put aside what you're doing and watch it now. It's most effective if you put the music (by Cyriak) at full volume."

OpenSCAD - The Programmers Solid 3D CAD Modeller

"Unlike most free software for creating 3D models (such as the famous application Blender) it does not focus on the artistic aspects of 3D modelling but instead on the CAD aspects. Thus it might be the application you are looking for when you are planning to create 3D models of machine parts but pretty sure is not what you are looking for when you are more interested in creating computer-animated movies.

OpenSCAD is not an interactive modeller. Instead it is something like a 3D-compiler that reads in a script file that describes the object and renders the 3D model from this script file (see examples below). This gives you (the designer) full control over the modelling process and enables you to easily change any step in the modelling process or make designes that are defined by configurable parameters."

Excellent work by Krystal Georgiou."

Logorama

"Logorama presents us with an over-marketed world built only from logos and real trademarks that are destroyed by a series of natural disasters (beginning with a hurricane, cyclone, tidal wave...). Logotypes are used to describe an alarming universe (similar to the one that we are living in) with all the graphic signs that accompany us everyday in our lives. This over-organized universe is violently transformed by the cataclysm becoming fantastic and absurd. it shows the victory of the creative against the rational, where nature and human fantasy triumph."

"BigLittleCity put out a call to animators from in and around Cardiff to imagine the secret lives of the animals of Bute Park's animal wall. Ed Jackson chose the vulture for his piece"

Unfolding PTV array

"finally got round to rendering this properly, so you can see the panels heat up, as well as the holographic lights on the tips of the panels. I didn't think too much about timing when I was setting up this animation, so it's pretty terrible and unrealistic. The one thing I had carefully got right was the rotation of the grav-pods, but then I decided to slow it all down by a factor of 2, so they're not right any more either, unless you're happy with 0.5g."
