«One Word Movie»

«One Word Movie» is an on-line platform which organizes, based on user-supplied terms, the flood of images on the Internet into an animated film. A word turns into images, images turn into a movie.This project plays with the tension between on-line and cinematic approaches to images. What images are associated with what words? «One Word Movie» reveals a glimpse into the „collective psychology“ of online cultures by showing patterns of word-image associations, as created by millions of people around the world.

As many other pieces, this one by Swiss artists Beat Brogle & Philippe Zimmermann is fueled by real time Google searches. This particular piece distinguishes itself by its simplicity and clarity. Type one word and this piece will generate a hypnotic sequence of images in interwoven loops.

MAKE-A-FLAKE

MAKE-A-FLAKE
A lot of people believe that Denmark is covered in snow all winter long. Sadly, that is not true. In fact, some winters go by with no snow at all. But this last few days everything have been white. For those of you not covered in snow, we bring you a nice, snow-related indoor activity: Make-a-flake. Try it – it will also serve as a nice easy online activity for January 1st.
