The Skeleton and the Walrus

Here’s a little Processing sketch using particles to transform text.

The story of the Skeleton and the Walrus, after the jump.

The story of the Skeleton and the Walrus

You have two deaths: a normal death and a YouTube death. The Skeleton sits in a basement all day; he wears black and has a pony tail. He lifts weights. Surrounded by monitors, he watches everyone’s YouTube death.

He’s in your cellphone, maybe. He’s in mine at least. Sometimes you have to call him. Sometimes he calls you, and that’s why you want to have the Skeleton’s number stored: so you can screen his calls. Because he describes your death to you, your YouTube death. He says things like, “Pants figure prominently in your death.”

But he’s out of the basement now. And he’s learned how to use video iPods, so he’ll get in your car when you’re stopped at a light and hand you an iPod, and then you watch the bus run a light and hit your car.

His sidekick is the Walrus. He watches your death too.

Processing Particle Painting

admin — Sat, 14 Jun 2008 15:12:46 +0000

This is a little processing sketch I did. The rules are fairly simple: around 6000 particles have random attractions to each other, and every 200 frames a new set of attractions is added. The large screenshots are more interesting than the small video; both are included.

More after the jump.

I Told Her On Alderaan

I’ve started learning to mix video, and after a few weeks of buying and returning MIDI controllers and cutting up old movies, this is my first effort. Next project is learning how to export these at a decent resolution.

From a story that never ran. Strange play with Casper and Captain America as characters.

Twitter 2D

I’ve been working on this strange little Twitter project recently. It’s basically a wrapper for Twitter with some strange game-like functionality built in. I think the point was to encourage people to interact with each other and keep track of their friends’ lives. It’s still in some form of development stage, but you can sign up and start playing in the meantime.
