ITP alum, James Clar is an artist who works with LEDs to create visually delicious information displays. His 3D display cube (left) is made from 1000 individually programmable LEDs that can be animated to chow spatial movement. The Square Eclipse (right) animates ambient light reflected off the surface it's mounted on. There are a few movies on his site that show these, and several other pieces in motion.

Analog and Digital Collide in a Burst of Text and LEDs at the ITP Spring 2009 Show

Ranging between artistic and commercial, conceptual and pragmatic, the work is always inspirational. With every show there seems to be an emergent theme—this year's collision of analog and digital isn't unprecedented, but does deliver new interpretations to get excited about. AL-gorithm, by Alex Kauffmann Alex Kauffmann, the artist behind AL-gorithm,...
Casey Curran: Oceania
Oceania is a look at Seattle-based artist Casey Curran's kinetic works. Using old wires and at times even older books, Curran skillfully creates a "truth-seeming version of reality" full of insects and under water creatures.Thanks to Gregory for the tip!...
