Collaborative tools for designers – Part 3 : Pixelapse
Reviewing tools for collaborative practices and version control for designers, this is episode III. And to my surprise, I’ve discovered Pixelapse, an online tool that promises to do just that. It’s been a while since I had found about Pixelapse, but never took the chance to study it deeper until last week. Mainly because they…

Collaborative tools for designers – Part 2 : Dropbox
Last week, I promised I would be exploring some of the tools promoted as helping designers in their revision control and collaborative process and that I would do this by comparing them to a list of benefits I extracted from my use of Git.

Collaborative tools for designers – Part 1
Since I’ve discovered and used distributed revision control in my day to day practice, I’ve been amazed by how much it has helped me getting more organized, stop worrying about loosing files and also encouraged me to experiment more and thus try more options in my work. And I’m not even talking about how it…

Making of “Word Wars- News from the Empire”
Sharing here my thought and tool process that brought me to create the project called “Word Wars – News from the Empire“. I’ve been playing around for a while with Blender scripting and even organized monthly workshops about it to share the experience with other artists in a group called “Blender-Brussels“. And since the beginning…

Star Wars blended
All 6 Star Wars films, blended together on top of each other, is a brilliant readymade mashup of this iconic universe by Georges Lucas. To me, it sounds like the perfect thing to display at the next VJ fest, as is. It also produces beautiful stills that any glitch/collage artist should be jealous of. But…

Blender shortcuts right in your search engine
Two months ago, I attended a community meetup in NY called Quack & Hack. The point of it was to gather people around coding to improve the DuckDuckGo search engine. If you don’t know DuckDuckGo (DDG) by now, it’s the “search engine that does not track you”. And it’s been my tool of choice when…

I finished Facebook #orSoIThought
On May 27th, I’ve finished The stupidest game on Facebook. I was silently running this little self-amusing game since the 15th of May and then, later on, opened the process publicly. In the end, it took me less than 15 days to fill up to 99 the most famous 3 icons that you find on…

The stupidest game on Facebook
and you don’t need to install any app for it. While contemplating the most watched icons on Facebook, it became obvious to me that this was an actual Facebook score. I’ve always believed Facebook is a game. And therefore, it should not be taken seriously. Any other use of Facebook would be foolish. So these…

As if it’s coming back from the old ages, the Spirograph has been upgraded. And it’s creator is even seeking funding for it. I like how the video even looks like it’s been shot with an old VHS camera. Source: The Automata Blog
