  The Hubble Ultra Deep Field in 3D

  (3D)
  [ 4:17 - from YouTube ]

  As the narration says, “We pointed the most powerful telescope ever built by human beings at absolutely nothing, for no other reason than because we were curious, and discovered that we occupy a very tiny place in the heavens.” In other words, space is frakkin’ huge, and we’re so not.  view

  Stop motion animators give me more insight into all those rips and tears on my furniture. I guess I should stop blaming the cat. A fun, creative expose on the dirty sexual lives of furniture! view

  Blip

  (3D)
  [ 3:22 - from Vimeo ]

  Enter the surrealistic world of Blip, where 3D animation brings us inside an old school video game, in a new school sort of way.   This is a tale that tells us, no matter how different we can be from one another, we are more similar than we know.  view

  Perdoname

  (Cartoon / Traditional)
  [ 0:32 - from YouTube ]

  "Huevos" is a hit Latin cartoon about eggs with bad attitudes. This short has all the passionate melodrama of Latin culture packed into thirty seconds, as a "Huevo" asks for your forgiveness. I've actually had my father do something very similar with a straight face.  view

  The New Pornographers - Myriad Harbour

  (Experimental)
  [ 3:56 - from YouTube ]

  This is the kind of song that inspires endless debates among online music fans, most of them an attempt to explain the lyrics and create some kind of a cohesive narrative. So you head to YouTube to watch the “official” video, and hope to get some answers. Luckily, this psychedelic motion graphics creation, by the Flourescent Hill Collective, still leaves the song’s mysteries open to interpretation. view

  Flight Patterns

  (Experimental)
  [ 0:34 - from Vimeo ]

  Long exposure of flying bugs under a street light. While the description doesn't sound appealing, the work is simply amazing. There is art everywhere, we just have to take the time to notice. view

  Pringle of Scotland Animation by David Shrigley - Life Behind The Scenes

  (Cartoon / Traditional)
  [ 3:10 - from YouTube ]

  Pringle of Scotland, a luxury knitwear brand that creates cardigans (or jumpers, as they call them) commissioned artist David Shrigley to create a humorous short animated film about life behind-the-scenes at Pringle to celebrate the brands return to Milan Fashion Week. It starts out as a seemingly tame overview of their jumper-making operations but quickly escalates into some good 'ol European cheekiness. Brilliantly done, and there's something especially hilarious about a mild-sounding Scottish lass talking about hooters. view
