PLURALITY – a sci-fi short

I want this to be a feature film.

Sean Bean Death Reel

Don’t worry, Sean Bean is still alive and kicking. But he seems to be doing a lot of dying in his films. Here’s a well-made Sean Bean death reel (which isn’t exactly for the faint of heart and contains quite a few spoilers):

Making the sound for Transformers

Not a big fan of the Transformers franchise (it’s toys, how the hell would that ever be scary? Ok, so Chucky was a doll, but that’s different – he’s ginger!), but anyway, here’s an interesting video about how they made the sounds for the latest installment “Dark of the moon”:

I just love watching professionals do what they do.

Food

Preparing tiny (fake) food

Here’s a video of someone preparing tiny hamburgers, hot-dogs and fries (which aren’t edible). According to the video’s description, it’s a Japanese toy kitchen and cooking set (which unfortunately isn’t available anymore). What’s so incredible about this is that not just the food, but the processes during the preparation look so real. Like the frying of the fries, which really isn’t frying but just some sort of chemical reaction that creates the illusion of hot oil frying away.

As the people at Boing Boing put it: The mind boggles.

Art Outside

Arctic Light timelapse

If you like beautiful images, a soothing piano score and have a few minutes to spare, take a look at this:

If you can, watch it on a big screen.

Music

Felice Brothers: Ponzi

Speaking of The Felice Brothers. Here’s a video of “Ponzi”, a song from their latest album (both song and video are wonderful):

And if you want to listen to the whole thing, they are gracious enough to let you do that right on their website.

The Node

In all frankness, I don’t have the slightest clue what this video is about (the description on Vimeo doesn’t help much), but it’s beautiful and you should watch it.
