It’s nothing more than crumpled paper. But it’s also shot and lit in a way that makes it so much more interesting.
Metamorphosen illustrations by Atelier Olschinsky
via olschinsky.at
Extremely detailed abstract digital free illustrations by this small austrian graphic design studio. Stay on their website for a bit, they have more gorgeous work there.
Lights – Interactive Music Video
Another one of those interactive music videos, we might be talking about a new form of art soon. This time it is a poppy electro anthem by Ellie Goulding that gets a OpenGL driven 3D visualization. You steer through an colorful abstract environment that adapts to the tune. The interaction is not very deep, but still an intoxication experience. Reminded me a lot of some designs by Universal Everything though.
Living Room Songs by Ólafur Arnalds
via livingroomsongs.erasedtapes.com
The best free music I heard since forever: Ólafur Arnalds creates and releases a new song, one per day for one whole week since Oct 3. The songs will be recorded and filmed live in the living room of his Reykjavík apartment and released instantly for FREE as streamed videos and MP3 downloads. It is mostly neo-classical melancholic instrumentals, with a little bit of electronica. Right up my alley. Above is day 2, "Near Light".

WebGL Water
If you get a glimpse of what the web might look like in ten years, please see this demo by Evan Wallace. It renders a realistic pool of water, complete with refraction and light. To see this, you need a Webkit nightly, a new Chrome version or the latest Safari 5.1 with developer menu and WebGL active. It's worth the effort.

FaceOSC x Processing x Arduino x Servo on Vimeo
via vimeo.com
My friend Jeremy and his wife posted this little demo of FaceOSC and Arduino/Processing. It shows a motor controlled with your eyebrows. I could think of a million things you could do with that interface...
Characters by Hiroshi Yoshii
via behance.net
A ridiculous amount of awesome 3D characters is coming from Hiroshi Yoshii. He is doing these sweet buggers on a daily (!) basis, so dig deeper into here and if this is not enough: there.
