Created in 1977 by Charles and Ray Eames for IBM, this is an interesting look at scale to the power of ten from the farthest scope of our view, to the smallest. It would be interesting to see an updated version of this including data of modern research, however the video’s contents are still fascinating to behold. Enjoy below the break. (more…)

I stumbled upon this old video (below) of eccentric pop artist Andy Warhol ‘painting’ a digital portrait of Debbie Harry in 1985. This video is hilariously bad and fascinating to me, and I figured some of you might appreciate it too. I especially like how the computer guy host seems to be less than thrilled with the color fills Andy is using but Andy is more than fascinated by it and calls his digital manipulation ‘beautiful’ I suppose the concept of this moment is quite beautiful, although the results are laughable by today’s standards. It sure doesn’t hurt to have Debbie Harry circa 1985 as your muse. Witness the first crude steps of a technology that many of us take for granted on a daily basis. (more…)
