Creating subtle UI details using Midnight.js, | PACKT Books

Fri, 09/18/2015 - 12:14 -- rprice

reating animations in CSS or JavaScript is often annoying and/or time-consuming, so most people tend to pay a lot of attention to the content that’s below "the fold" ("the fold" is quickly becoming an outdated concept, but you know what I mean). I’ll be covering a few techniques to help you add some nice touches to your landing pages that only take a few minutes to implement and require pretty much no development work at all.

Julian Opie, David Shrigley, Cao Fei, and Other Animators Illuminate Something at the Core of Art | MIT Technology Review

Tue, 08/18/2015 - 07:28 -- rprice

It is very much of its time. As Brian Droitcour noted in Art Forum, few works got as much attention in 2008, let alone works in construction (the making of RMB City was constantly on view in London’s Serpentine Gallery). The passage of half a decade has given it a period look. Game technology has moved on, producing ever greater verisimilitude. All works of art contain clues to the date of their creation. But there are specific problems for artists using software created for film animation or digital games.
