Chess Is Spectacular! - Novel Sport Visualization Techniques

https://player.vimeo.com/video/1235989588?badge=0

Intro

It's been a while since I've last posted and a lot has happened in that time: I've managed to finish my procedural R'n'D and spent several years applying the results commercially. I've also principally advanced in my research on formal taxonomy of visual style and have indulged into the realtime and interactive graphics.

More and more of the commercial work got hidden under NDAs and my own pet projects have become ever bigger, while the time to write about them ever scarcer. But finally, here come some news as I have advanced in one of those big projects - visualizing the...

Ann Toebbe’s Skewed Paintings Transform Architectural Spaces into Cherished Places

“I find that when I work from my emotions and experiences, I make a more powerful image,” Ann Toebbe writes. Meditating on the connection between physical spaces and the feelings and memories bound within them is central to the Chicago artist’s practice.

In a review of Toebbe’s recent exhibition at Hyde Park Art Center, the writer Elisa Shoenberger teases out the distinction that grounds the artist’s work. “Space is the physical location, while place is the meaning we bring to it. It’s the difference between thinking about the physical location of your house (space) and the feelings, history and...

Akinori Goto's Incredible 3D-Printed Zoetrope

Here we see an odd-looking wireframe, 3D-printed by Japanese artist Akinori Goto. The piece is called Ballet #01.

When you place it on a turntable and shine a narrow beam of light on it, you see that it's a zoetrope:

Just incredible.

You can see more of Goto's work here.

Стабильное меню на новом сайте

У меня на сайте текущий пункт меню выделяется жирным. Обычно при таком дизайне возникают прыжки: жирное слово ведь чуть шире обычного, так что при переходах между разделами более правые пункты немного сдвигаются влево-вправо. Бывают редкие «униширинные» шрифты, где разные начертания имеют одинаковую ширину, но не ограничивать же выбор ими.

Когда я открыл новый сайт на прошлой неделе, меню у меня прыгало, потому что я не успел докрутить, а открываться уже было пора. Но надо было решить эту проблему.

Идея решения простая: каждый пункт меню должен всегда занимать столько места, сколько занимал бы, будь он жирным, даже когда на самом деле он не жирный. Но как это сделать?

Можно написать скрипт, который бы как-то незаметно временно рисовал пункты жирными, измерял бы их,...

Omar Gandhi designs house and studio with "striking silhouette" for furniture maker

Omar Gandhi Architects has collaborated with furniture maker Brodye Chappell to build a house and workshop with a corrugated metal facade on Prince Edward Island, Canada.

Located in the agricultural area of Marshfield, just outside Charlottetown, the two-part property touches lightly on its surroundings.

"The intent was to create somewhat of a line in the dirt on the top of the agrarian landscape," Omar Gandhi Architects (OGA) founder Omar Gandhi told Dezeen.

"There was an ambition to create a minimal response, and a striking silhouette in the farmstead landscape."

Hinterher's Flexible Bike Cargo Trailers

German company Hinterher makes bicycle cargo trailers that can be stored flat. The company was founded by architect and furniture builder Peter Hornung, who designed the first Hinterher trailer as an alternative to his delivery van.

The design is simple and versatile: It's essentially an aluminum tray, two wheels, the drawbar and a kickstand.

The drawbar also doubles as a handle, so you can use the trailer independently—for instance, parking your bike and using the trailer as a shopping cart.

Multiple sizes are offered.

Fiat's Strange, Transforming Multiplay Concept Vehicle

https://invidious.privacyredirect.com/watch?v=s41BLQhZ6Gs

This week Fiat unveiled their Multiplay concept, a boundary-blurring vehicle with transforming bodywork. "The concept combines the space efficiency of an MPV, the character of an SUV and the versatility of a pick-up," the company writes.

"At the heart of the project is the C-Pillar 'Metamorfosi' architecture: a mobile rear module that enables the vehicle to switch from a 6+1 family configuration to a four-seat pick-up with an open bed." The idea seems to be that you'd remove the rear seats, slide the rear module forward and have a tiny open bed with a tonneau cover.

Andy Matthews Studio designs Dulwich cricket pavilion to be antithesis of "off-the-shelf generic designs"

Architecture practice Andy Matthews Studio has unveiled a black, contemporary cricket pavilion on Dulwich Common, south London.

Built for Streatham & Marlborough Cricket Club, the pavilion stands alongside Dulwich Common overlooking the club's main pitch.

The mono-pitch main form was designed to be a contemporary expression of a traditional cricket pavilion, while demonstrating the quality of facilities possible for community sports clubs.

"The concept was to create a contemporary interpretation of a traditional cricket pavilion and club room space allowing the viewing of both pitches from within whilst meeting the [England and Wales Cricket Board] ECB requirements...
