Visualization & Animation

I have two things to share today, both of which are must-sees.

First off, the program TuneGlue, which creates a visual web between musical artists. TuneGlue uses information from Last.fm, a social music site that I love, to link artists. This is a great example of Web2.0-- Last.fm is a social site, so the links that TuneGlue generates are influenced by user content. ...Plus it's muy fun to just play around with.

My second little gem is one of the most watched clips on YouTube, but somehow it eluded me. Until now. It's a brilliant piece of animation as well as one of the sweetest/saddest/most creative stories I have ever seen.




Enjoy, and happy Thursday.
