Man as Industrial Palace

November 1, 2009

The visual crossover between industrialization and science in Fritz Kahn’s artwork demonstrates surprisingly accurately how human nature became culturally encoded by placing the knowledge in an industrial modernity of machine analogues. He produced lots of illustrations that drew a direct functional analogy between human physiology and the operation of contemporary technologies. Therefore, by illustrating the body as a factory, Kahn was able to relate the body’s complex organic interior to the industrialized space so common in society during that period of time (the poster was created in 1926).

Henning Lederer: “From the moment on that I got to know Kahn’s poster “Man as Industrial Palace” in 2006, I had the idea to animate this complex and strange way of explaining the functions of a body. I wanted to continue Fritz Kahn’s act of replacing a biological with a technological structure by transferring this depiction with the help of motion graphics and animation. In addition to the moving images, as a framework, I had the idea to create a cabinet for this work including a mixture of old and new technology. This new version of the “Industrial Palace“ is an interactive installation for the audience to interact with - and by this to explore the different cycles of this human machinery.”

Tuning Instruments

October 14, 2009

Jerzy Kucia (b.1942) was trained as a painter and graphic artist at the Krakow Academy of Fine Arts, where he is currently a professor and the head of the animation department. His first animated film, Return, was completed in 1972, and demonstrates beautifully Kucia’s interest in the interplay between reality, memory, dream, and emotion.

Jak działa jamniczek? How a sausage dog works?

October 14, 2009

Julian Antonisz, (November 8, 1941 - January 31, 1987), was a Polish avant-garde filmmaker, artist, animator, scriptwriter, composer, and inventor. Best known as an inventor and promoter of his unique animation technique called non-camera.

Sun A Non-Camera Film 1977 was his first all non-camera movie, although the technique has been used also in Antonisz’s earlier productions. The idea after the tehnique was to paint or scratch the images directly onto the movie tape instead of using a camcorder.

(Shortfilm) Madame Tutli-Putli

September 10, 2009

When Madame Tutli-Putli was first being discussed as a concept for an animated short film, one of the most important creative issues was how to bring human emotion and expressiveness to stop-motion puppets.

Portrait artist Jason Walker created the technique of adding composited human eyes to the stop motion puppets. Walker developed a system of separating and analyzing the previously shot stop-motion puppet moves, choreographing, rehearsing and shooting a human actor’s corresponding “eye performance” to match each puppet move, at the same time recreating as closely as possible all light and shadow passes original to the stop-motion. Once the human eyes were shot, each eye was individually positioned, scaled, re-timed and digitally composited onto the puppet scenes on a frame by frame basis.
The creation of the film and this extraordinarily painstaking process took 4 years from concept to completion of the 20min Shortfilm by Chris Lavis and Maciek Szczerbowski.
