“The city district Amsterdam Osdorp recently merged with Slotervaart and Geuzenveld-Slotermeer and was given the name Amsterdam Nieuw-West. This change also meant the end of 20 years of restructuring urbanized areas. To celebrate everything achieved, a book was published. ‘The Metamorphosis of Osdorp’ gives an overview of the architectural highlights. We were asked to create an intriguing video, featuring the buildings we find most characteristic.”

Yannick Puig created this animated video for the band Kwoon several months ago that I somehow missed. It’s a beautiful piece of animation that works perfectly with the music track and I was happy to stumble upon it at Pasa La Vida.

“Sometimes you find yourself in a place that you just can’t explain and quite often it can be a little bit worrying. This animated short tells of one such occasion as our hero tries to express his feelings in the only way he can…via the medium of song.”

“This is a direct video output from the iPad’s HD screen which generates the animation in realtime at 1024×768. It’s based on my previous animations and ‘Zio’ - my iPhone app. It’s created by complex algorithms and random generation, so you never get the exact same animation everytime you run it.”

The video was produced by codemaster Glenn Marshall with music by Brian Eno.

Molho is the work of Brazilian director Marcelo Altino Garcia. He has created across numerous disciplines and takes a unique individualist approach to each project. I have posted his work before but he has recently updated with some new and noteworthy projects. He has a large body of work already on display and he is definitely someone to keep an eye on in the future.
