Re-Imagining Work
How can we get people more engaged, more productive, and happier at work? Is technology part of the problem -- and could it also be part of the solution? Dave Coplin, Chief Envisioning Officer at Microsoft, imagines what might be possible if more organisations embraced the full, empowering potential of technology and encouraged a truly open, collaborative and flexible working culture.

Full Turn
Benjamin Muzzin wanted to explore the notion of the third dimension, with the desire to try to get out of the usual frame of a flat screen. This work consisted in exploring and experimenting with a different device for displaying images, trying to give animations volume in space. The resulting machine works with the rotation of two screens placed back to back, creating a three-dimensional animated sequence that can be seen at 360 degrees. Due to the persistence of vision, the shapes that appear on the screen turn into kinetic light sculptures.

Lost & Found
In a remote corner of New Zealand’s South Island, tucked away among the last remaining tracts of native forest, lies a little-known place of wonder. It is the life’s work and extraordinary creation of inventor, artist and self-confessed tinkerer, Blair Somerville. For over ten years Blair has single-handedly owned, operated and ceaselessly expanded the Lost Gypsy Gallery, his wonderland of homegrown wizardry and a playground for kids and adults alike. Using only recycled materials, Blair takes DIY to artistic extremes. His creations are ingenious, interactive, and often hilariously impractical. They take many shapes and forms and share an uncanny ability to amaze, entertain and inspire.

Rotating Moon
A huge payoff from the longevity of the LRO mission is the repeat coverage obtained by the LROC Wide Angle Camera (WAC). The WAC has a very wide field-of-view (FOV), 90° in monochrome mode and 60° in multispectral mode, hence its name. On the one hand, the wide FOV enables orbit-to-orbit stereo, which allowed LROC team members at the DLR to create the unprecedented 100 meter scale near-global (0° to 360° longitude and 80°S to 80°N latitude) topographic map of the Moon (the GLD100).

Chutzpah
From inside the Weiner tornado the whole world looks absurd. People who hate you hate you for typing a few lame, creepy things into your laptop. People who admire you probably shouldn’t. Everyone is a menace, a fool or a jackass, like a mosquito. You’ve got ten-thousand mosquitoes swirling around you, and you loathe all of them, and you need them, and they think you’re a pervert, but you might be good for New York because of your ideas book, which isn’t bad.

Danielle
Danielle, by filmmaker Anthony Cerniello, is not your traditional take on aging. Cerniello used animation along with photography to speed up the process. He worked with photographer Keith Sirchio to take pictures of his friend Danielle's family, finding relatives with similar bone structure. Then, animators Nathan Meier and Edmund Earle morphed the still photographs together so it would mimic a time lapse video of aging. The photographs become alive because of the After Effects and 3D Studio Max animation.
