Melter

Incredible kinetic sculpture by Takeshi Murata, described (if that's possible) by The Creators Project as : "by definition a zoetrope, a device that produce the illusion of motion from a rapid succession of static pictures, but it's tangible. In other words, the installation is a sculptural animation. The 3D-object itself spins, creating a kinetic effect (with the help of some strobe lights) that makes it look as if it's melting into itself.
Murata spent months configuring the object on a computer before making a physical incarnation with a master fabricator and mechanical engineers who typically work on high-profile Hollywood CGI projects. The result is truly extraordinary, as the part-animation part-sculpture looks like an alien egg, or something otherwordly. It's as if the orb has a pulse and life of its own that doesn't totally adhere to physics."

PolyFauna
Universal Everything explores Radiohead's digital subconscious and love of the early internet:
Radiohead: PolyFauna on Nowness.com
“We were contacted by Thom Yorke and the artist Stanley Donwood with the idea of building an app that is an immersive, ever-changing world,” says artist and founder of Universal Everything, Matt Pyke, of collaborating on Radiohead’s brand new app, PolyFauna. To create the dreamlike, audio-visual terrain that is showcased in this bespoke edit, Radiohead and the band’s producer Nigel Godrich revisited the studio sessions from 2011 album The King of Limbs, making extended, atmospheric, fragmented layers of sound out of the scattered beats and ambient noise of standout track, “Bloom”.
