Siggraph Highlights program selected
after our last visit to Siggraph 2007 in San Diego |

Blind
Man’s Eye
Matthew Talbot-Kelly
Ireland 2007, 6’00
Behind eyes that cannot look out there
exists a mind in which the richest imaginable visuality soars, cascades
and dances for its master.
|
 |
Life Line
Tomek Duckl
Hungary 2007, 6’00
A very stylish ballet of cogs, wheels
and machinery. |
 |
Drift
Max Hattler
UK 2007, 3’45
An intricately constructed, ultra close-up
look focusing on a part of our> bodies we all barely see and
take for granted. |
 |
Samsa - Homage
To Franz Kafka
R Lange
Germany 2007, 4’00
An absorbing, meticulously detailed deconstruction of the great
man. Perfectly paced with whiffs of the surreal, unanswerable question.
|
 |
Sleep Or Not To
Sleep
Rait Siska
Switzerland 2006, 3’15
The human farm stretches before us for as far as the eye can
see. A giant room, a hive of activity, a mosh office of the future.
|
 |
Josie’s
Lalaland
Yibi Hu
UK 2007, 3’45
Josie decides that life is for the living,
even when there isn’t much life left to be lived. |
 |
Derriere La Porte
H Canac, G. Brinkhuizen
France 2007, 4’30
A kind of crossroads where gaming style and cool magazine graphic
design meld with elements of music video culture and cutting edge
digital animating. |
 |
Camera Obscura
M Buchalski, JM Drechsler, T Onillon
France 2007, 7’15
If Dali had been given a computer this
is what he might have created. Is this the crazed inner visions
of a mind exposed or a Clockwork Orange-like attempt to impose a
different view on the mind’s eye? |
 |
Labyrinth
Omid Khoshnazar
Iran 2007, 9’15
From the maker of ‘Zero Degree’ comes this fascinating
extension of the idea. A soldier trapped within borders he cannot
readily identify, dangers he can only react to, and a reality he cannot
control or run from. |
 |
Flug
Peter Kisantal
Slovakia 2007, 6’00
Giant ribbon bugs climb out of the gaps
and begin a slithering, sliding takeover of the urban environment
they have emerged from. A new order is not far away. |
 |
Elephants Dream
Bassam Kurdali
Holland 2007, 11’00
Proog and Emo are heading to the safest place in the machine, hidden
behind uncanny traps so deadly that nothing can ever reach them. |
 |
Evolizer
Jan van Nuenen
Holland 2007, 10’45
This simply has to be seen to be believed.
Anything that’s worth doing is worth overdoing. A frenetic
journey through an elaborate digital jigsaw leads to an undersea
domain teaming with deep green life. |
 |
Switch
Jean-Julien Pous, Pierre Prinzbach
France 2007, 6’00
The shortest distance between two points
is always a straight line. Everybody knows that – that’s
why everybody is running that same ol’ straight line. |
