Graffiti Analysis

http://graffitianalysis.com/about/

Grafitti analysis is an interesting project by Evan Roth (and others) where he’s converting graffiti, or more accurately the motions which create graffiti tags, into data, which is then archived into a database and can be displayed as a 3d visualization. There are some interesting applications, but mostly I think it looks cool.

Gorillaz and Miku. Who can’t resist a cg character performing onstage? Not these people. I dig the leek-shaped lightsticks. (For the impatient, Miku makes her stage appearance at about 5:25 in this video.)

The mocap performance is nice I guess but what really interests me about Hatsyune Miko is that her voice is synthesized, not recorded. Would have been cooler if she was puppeteer-ed in real time ala Henson’s creature shop…

Update – no video available anymore, it was removed from youtube. Bah.
