Jamie, one of our super talented Flash developers, has recently been working on an exciting little art project for the Southbank Centre. Part of this involves the development of an interface that captures images via a webcam, following a certain user input. Nothing revolutionary about that, but whilst doing some R+D for the project Jamie inadvertently took a couple of thousand pictures of himself throughout the course of a day. When edited together you get a fascinating time lapse film of his entire day (wonder what happened at about 32 seconds…some sort of ‘Computer says No’ moment I think. I’m not getting good vibes from that body language).
Do people still bury those time capsule things to be dug up years from now? It would no doubt baffle a future alien race to see how human beings, once they’d mastered the whole hunter gatherer thing, harnessed fire and invented the wheel, progressed to sitting still all day and staring at a screen.
Sedentary though Jamie’s day may have been, come back soon and we’ll unveil the mind bogglingly clever stuff he’s been working on.
I do love happy accidents (no, not that sort).
Love the Koyaanisqatsi music use.
