The face tracking is incredibly accurate. We should try it out sometime.
A work by Australian visual artist Kit Webster, ENIGMATICA II is a visual experience that distorts reality and destabilizes its audience by using stimulation and loss of perception. The sculpture consists of ten suspended frames that diminish in size down the length of the gallery.
Continued with Enigmatica III.
A great animation film (Please Say Something, 2009) by David OReilly about a troubled relationship between a Cat and Mouse set in the distant Future.
So, let’s start sharing things again. Just found this old link to a really fascinating video of the TM5 – Time Machine! installation. Don’t know why but I really do like this one.
Shadow Monsters is great interactive installation in my eyes. Visit Worthers’Original for more info.
Marius Hügli and Martin Kovacovsky two graduated students from HGK Basel realized this augmented reality book in 2010 as part of their Bachelor-Thesis. It’s an experimental design project which explores and demonstrates the new possibilities opened up by the use of augmented reality technology in the printing sector.
xkcd.com is a webcomic by really funny Randall Munroe. He graduated with a degree in physics and is a former NASA employee. His comics therefore include a lot of scientific and mathematic jokes. Definitely one of my favourite comics out there.
Kaspar Allanbach’s bachelor project at the HKB, Berne is a website about swimming in the beautiful river “Aare” in his hometown Berne. Check it out: Aareschwumm.ch. Nice job!
Would be nice to go for a swim.

Silas Nout, an inventive Illustrator from Rotterdam. In his work he tries to find the limits and going beyond the flat surface. The work “Haasje Over” definitely caught my attention.
Check out these astonishing peripheral drift illusions. The circles in the first image appear to rotate when in the visual periphery. The effect appears for instance when reading a text next to the image (like this one) or generally when you move your eyes. Many variations of this illusion exist. The two examples are from A.Kitaoka.
An explanation of the effect can be found here:
