Free Online Tool creates ‘Hyperlapse’ videos using Google Street View

11 Apr

Online user experience company Teehan + Lax has created a free tool for creating ‘hyperlapse’ videos using Google Street View. The term ‘hyperlapse’ describes timelapse videos which incorporate camera movement – something that is typically extremely difficult and time-consuming to perfect. The team at Teehan + Lax began experimenting with Google Street View as a guide for choosing locations, but realised that it could be used as source material. Click through for more details.

Eyebombing: 21 Street Artworks Utilize 42+ Googly Eyes

04 Apr

[ By WebUrbanist in Art & Street Art & Graffiti. ]

eyebombing googly eyes

Unlike graffiti tags or other stylized and personalized approaches to urban art, eyebombing is an equalizer. Like a crowd behind Guy Fawkes masks, the work of any of the following 21 example ‘eyebombers’ is inherently anonymous due to the similarly simple materials used in each case.

eyebombing happy sad faces

Of course, the eyes just set the stage for further anthropomorphic interpretation ; with them in place, other street elements like grates, slots, posts and more suddenly become faces, mouths and limbs.

Context, with or without the intention of an artist, supplies emotion – even the most neutral eye placement makes for implied facial expressions of all kinds.

Per Eyebombing.com, these unsigned interventions are “different from traditional types of street art like tagging, sticking, stencils” because “the above forms are largely driven by egocentric behaviour, like getting seen, respect and maybe a hope to get famous, often using vandalism as modus operandi.”

eyebomb expressive urban art

Instead, they claim, it is about the message, the humor and simply brightening someone’s day. And while you can buy eyes from their site, they are also (again like a generic mask) available essentially anywhere and quite inexpensively, making this an easy art form to get involved with wherever you may be.

Lessons in Graffiti: Math Symbols Make Street Art Equations

23 Feb

[ By WebUrbanist in Art & Street Art & Graffiti. ]

math street art

1 window plus 1 window equals 2 windows – seems obvious, but it warrants at least a double-take, so to speak, when you see it so explicitly expressed. Simple black-outlined, white-filled, faux-three-dimensional shapes that render urban happenstance into something with a humorous sense of order.

math graffiti alley tags

Dubbed Sum Times (itself a cute play on words) this latest street project by Aakash Nihalani skips the alpha and numeric and heads straight for the symbolic, turning everything from trash cans and dumpsters to windows and doors into educational equations.

math inspired 3d symbols

The basics of multiplication, divisions, addition and subtraction – literal object lessons that makes chaos more comprehensible, and might even teach school children a thing or two (including how to subvert their surroundings).

math based installation equations

Regular readers and fans may recognize this artist’s style from similarly-abstract street artwork including this urban tape art series and this set of shifting geometries, each of which also impose a kind of three-dimensional geometry on flat urban surfaces.

Marvelous Muralist Makes Giant-Sized Street Art Illusions

19 Feb

[ By Steph in Art & Street Art & Graffiti. ]

Sam3 Giant Murals Street Art 1

The facades of entire buildings are transformed with the larger-than-life painted silhouettes of Madrid-based street artist Sam3. Known for both the enormous scale of his work and the graphic simplicity of his figures, Sam3 gives decaying urban buildings a sense of mystery and wonder.

Some works span billboards all over the city, such as a series that spells out the word ‘subliminal.’ Others stretch out across massive apartment complexes – like a giant man stepping out of the sky to pet a cat.

Many of Sam3′s works are surreal, with celestial elements. An alleyway mural in Vienna depicts a man being peeled like a potato by two gigantic hands.

Sam3′s street art can be seen all over the world, from his home state of Spain to a skyscraper in Atlanta. See more of his work at Sam3.es and Street Art Utopia.
