Real-time animation - seriously cool


MUTO a wall-painted animation by BLU from blu on Vimeo.

When I was teaching at Massey University Design School my students were fascinated by street art and graffiti. It was interesting to read their research proposals on the topic - especially the wild suppositions about the influence of street art on design trends and advertising - not always supported with sound arguments of he presence of reliable data.

But the area is very interesting, if you can shake of middle class disdain for graffiti as a form of vandalism. In the movie above I think Blu elevates it convincingly to art with a capital A.

Brilliant.

Thanks to Ollie Langridge for the heads up.
