A Tribute to BLADE RUNNER by françois vautier
An experimental film in homage to Ridley Scott’s legendary futuristic film “Blade Runner” (1982).
Created by extracting 167,819 frames from ‘Blade Runner’s final cut version, then assembling all these images to obtain one gigantic image of colossal dimensions : a square of approximately 60,000 pixels on one side alone, 3.5 gigapixels. A virtual camera was then placed above this big picture which creates an illusion, because contrary to appearances, there is only one image. It is in fact the relative movement of the virtual camera flying over this massive image that creates the animated film, a kind of “zootrope effect”, like a film in front of a projector.
The whole concept echoes one of the signature scenes from the film where “Deckard” (Harrison Ford) analyzes a photograph via voice recognition software.

Lovely poster for the forthcoming Videocrash AV gig at the Rhythm Factory in London on Nov 11th, featuring DJ Cheeba plus Tom Central & Cosmo Lopez. Tom also designed this poster and there might be copies for sale on the night.

Going through a couple of recently acquired Mediascene magazines today from the late 70’s and I was struck by how much more imaginatively designed the headers on some of the articles were. A lot of them riffed off of film or comic logo design of the age but were mini works of art in themselves. I’ve included various shots of comic logos from ads in the mags too.

Traveling past London Bridge station today I spotted a huge banner of Olly Moss’ Resistance 3 design, two poster designs are below.
And here’s a great little trailer inspired by his designs too

Fascinating, beautiful, a simple idea well done, wish I’d thought of this, file up there with ‘The Clock’. I’d recommend watching it full screen.
Excellent promo video for Pendulum‘s ‘Coffin’ by Jude and Jolyon Greenaway.
I can’t seem to embed the video here so you’ll have to click the link, they are also doing a 360 degree film presentation for Ron Arad at the Roundhouse next Wednesday.
Very strange video to accompany Kid Acne‘s first solo show at the Millennium Gallery in Sheffield, now open until Oct 23rd

Funki Porcini aka James Braddell (disclosure: very good friend of mine, I’ve designed several of his record sleeves over the years) is putting out some sublime music right now through his own channels. His Bandcamp page is seeing regular updates of new tracks and there are some real gems emerging, the latest being his ‘Six Minutes In Manchester’ single, complete with 9 Lazy 9 remix. Also check out another recent track ‘The Devil Drives’ below

Slick editing by Keith Carunida to Noisia‘s ‘Machine Gun’ 16 Bit remix
Just released with a first look trailer rumoured to be debuting this weekend with the last Harry Potter film.
So excited to finally be able to see this, I’ve been privy to some of the workings of this for the past year now (my wife works for them) and it opens this week in London at the National Maritime Museum. Part of a major new exhibition, although this will be a permanent installation, content-heavy video mapping based around the moon’s relationship to the sea, this is just a tiny part of it.
