iPad Light Drawing – Making Future Magic

September 17th, 2010 by Dan Barczak

Making Future Magic: iPad light painting from Dentsu London on Vimeo.

I came across this link from Today and Tomorrow (a blog I check out now and then), and thought of our Technology and Dev team and the continued integration with Design: yet another dynamic use for the iPad…but much more than that – Dentsu London, a creative communications agency, collaborated with BERG to visualize their “Making Future Magic” strategy in a movie. They decided to make a stop motion animation with light drawings made with an iPad. The result is amazing! At the beginning they explain the process, but the real video starts at 1:40. Charlie, here ya go.

The First Steps to a Mouseless World

ALL HAIL MAGIC TRACKPAD

This is a small step in a larger direction but i think its a good one. Obviously there are trackpads that exist out there, but just like the iPhone changed how we interact with telephones, if this becomes a standard for apple machines, this will alter the way we interact with our regular computers.

Tom Cruise was right!

Take this iPad…and BREAK IT!

iFORE!

Yep, that’s right, I said BREAK IT!

Daniel Tosh is funny. I like his comedy, it’s good stuff. His show Tosh.0, which aggregates some of the greatest web video clips each week and presents them to the world via a crazy 30 minute show on Comedy Central, is pure gold.

“Web Redemption”, where people who’ve made fools of themselves on the web via video (that more than likely others posted for them) get to go on the show and re-do their video, hopefully in their favor. Crystal Light Dancers, Average Homeboy, football player who tackles his own teammate. Truly awesome.

Last night, Mr. Tosh closed his show thanking the kind folks at Apple for giving him an iPad to try out. He then proceeded to do this, which is again, awesome.

The best part about that clip, that you don’t see because it closed out the last few seconds of the show, is when Tosh says “We never even turned it on.”
