RESONANCE

Stop. Put on your headphones. Go fullscreen, and sit still as Resonance blasts your earballs to pieces.

After debuting at OFFF Barcelona, Resonance is now online for all to enjoy. In its creator’s words:

[Resonance is] a collaborative project with over 30 independent visual and audio designers / studios. The aim was to explore the relationship between geometry and audio in unique ways.

There are several goosebump-worthy moments sprinkled throughout the film’s 11 minutes, but some of my favorite pairings are Jr.canest/David Kamp (2:50), Polynoid/David Kamp (4:19), Momentary People/Audionerve (7:08), and Onur Senturk/Studio Takt (8:37). The beauty of the project is that there’s something for everyone.

Makoto Shinkai: Neko no Shuukai

Roughly translated as “Kitty Gather Together,” this gem from the Far East comes from anime director Makoto Shinkai. Admittedly it’s a few years old now, but that doesn’t make it any the less amusing! Personally I would really love it if channel idents in the Western world took a few more risks like the chaps at NHK.
On a side note, the narrative has a waft of similarity with the recent Cravendale Cats with Thumbs campaign. There’s just something unnerving about cats banding together…
