Ha I saw an article about that German apocalypse book y/day and meant to post it to the German thread or somewhere but I like what you've done with it a lot more.

(Voynich manuscript gifs would be relevant to my interests)

(liking the concept of the Scorpion Dagger guy more than the execution but the ones shown do have a pleasingly Gilliamesque vibe)

i realize there's no point in looking at this thread because i post the same shit on my tumblr / twitter, but for once i have something on here that you can't already find elsewhere. i was asked by 15 Folds to make something on the theme of Evolution for March, and although they asked me not to "post anything on my own networks" i'm going to be bad to the bone and go ahead and post it since making it pretty much ruined my day off and it's one of my favorite things i've worked on in a long time.

eh, i may take out the square thing at the end. it was supposed to represent the increasing of distance from the bird in each cycle - the bird spawns a mutant which grows to twice its size then eats it, and then the camera draws back as it nears the looping frame so that the viewer thinks (or is supposed to think) that the birds are getting bigger and bigger as the loops continue. but taking a breather from it after spending all day working on it, i'm not sure that makes any sense

Karl Malone, Tuesday, 18 February 2014 01:37 (ten years ago) link

That is pretty cool!

Love to hear your thoughts on this. Seems like missing the point...

schwantz, Monday, 24 February 2014 22:17 (ten years ago) link

oh, i don't know. depends on which perspective you're using. i don't know much about it (or any good guesses on the future of tech in general) but if GFYs really are much smaller than GIFs and can handle more colors and higher resolutions, it could be a better file format for the purposes of most people. Almost everyone just uses a GIF to extract a clip from a longer video, anyway, so if there's a new way to do it that looks better, people would use it. GFY's success might just come down to compatibility with existing browsers and devices and apps. GIFs are supported on nearly everything (except fucking facebook and twitter, sigh) which is a large part of their success.

there's a comparatively tiny community of people who are interested in making GIFs from scratch, or by taking a short clip of video and manipulating it significantly, and within that, an even smaller portion of people who don't mind or even embrace the GIFs limitations (256 colors max, having to keep the frame count down for the viewer's practical purposes). having those limitations can be creatively beneficial sometimes because it forces you to be as economical as possible. but for the most part, i'm sure the more creative GIFmakers wouldn't mind switching to a more efficient format that can handle whatever they do. i know there's quite a few times where i had to drastically reduce the quality of a GIF (either by cutting out lots of frames or dropping the color quality significantly) in order to get it under a certain file size, and in those situations i would have been really happy if photoshop had a Save As GFY option that would have served my purposes!

Karl Malone, Monday, 24 February 2014 22:59 (ten years ago) link

Right on. Maybe they need a GFY option that further constricts you to the gif color pallette limitations, for old time's sake...

schwantz, Monday, 24 February 2014 23:12 (ten years ago) link

dang, that is rad. wish i would have thought of it!

a friend sent me that link the other day, and i had that depressing 2014 internet reaction "already saw it", by which i just mean that i see his gifs pop up on tumblr pretty often.

his stuff reminds me of dvdp's gifs (which are also great if somehow you've never ran across them)

Karl Malone, Wednesday, 19 March 2014 19:27 (ten years ago) link

i'm trying to make a bunch of gifs for Introspections.me so things are relatively cosmic lately

^from a video on contact improvisation dancing. i felt like a total dick because i came at contact improv from a really wacked out new age site and so i thought it was really funny, but then i showed it to my gf and she thought it was really neat and not funny at all^

i have a youtube channel but all that's on there are my terrible mad men and jeopardy video edits from a couple years ago

Karl Malone, Wednesday, 19 March 2014 19:53 (ten years ago) link

fractals are cool but i need to download ezfractalgeneratorlite.dmg or something first

Karl Malone, Wednesday, 19 March 2014 19:53 (ten years ago) link

those mad men videos are all-time and you need to one day do an entire episode

thanks! i've been wanting to get into video stuff more, but do a better job of it than before.

i'm deep into Introspections.me right now (planning on launching it in a 2 weeks, hopefully), but I was thinking about this earlier today: what about Kanyerants.com. It's nothing but Kanye ranting endlessly, with occasional fast forwarding sounds

the 15 second delay is so underutilized in GIFs

Karl Malone, Wednesday, 19 March 2014 20:26 (ten years ago) link

there could also be the more depressing general celebrity version, where it's nothing but clips of celebrities saying things that they think are really interesting because they're celebrities but they're really banal in reality
