This beautifully done piece is the work of Benjamin Ducroz a mediagraphics designer at the Australian Centre for the Moving Image. He used a surprising variety of materials and sources including 3D, paper, inkjet printed frames, watercolors, water and ink to create this lovely animation. The result is a little bit of magic.
Here are a few stills from the making-of set. Be sure to visit Ducroz’s website to see more of his work.
And the final result…enjoy!…

Thrilling work!!
“We are shapes and forms, bounded by mathematics, set free to grow and writhe within the preset parameters of what it means to be alive – which has been coded into us. Free will is a stochastic fractal extrapolation that proves how many infinite ways we can keep within the same few rules.”

Wowie..I wish mt brain was so poetic! I was more “ooo pretty” and after reading what you are thinking I can’t imagine not thinking about shape and form and mathematics and fractals and infinity. This is why we need poets in this world 🙂
