World War’s a new CG short directed by Vincent Chai, recent graduate of University of Hertfordshire, UK: brimming with pre-Hiroshima era urban landscapes, gritty bullet-time robot kung-fu, Wolverine claws and an atomic bomb. Given that it’s really an amateur project, it’s amazingly fun (all done with Maya, Photoshop, Premiere and After Effects). Check the bonus features on Chai’s site! (via dvice)

 The television skies of Chiba City branded his brains in 1992. He hasn't recovered fully since. Re-wired his brain with a few years of FastTracker, hosted radio shows on the first .hu netradio for 4 years, went on to broadcast radio for another two. Worked on the absurd radio series Kónuszék, that actually led him to become a script writer for the multiple-award winning animation Nyócker.Started LD50 in 2001, an alternative community portal for some, a media experiment for him. DJ'd and organized for 6 years @ Budapest: the first weekly gothic/industrial clubnights, the VK/jrock Nippon Shoxx and the biggest local industrial/cyber party series called Kollektíva, among many. Key figure behind the cyberpunk PDF magazine THE DOSE and he's making a comeback with it. He's currently an IT/science journalist, with a love for weird stuff, Asian cuisine, pop culture, energy drinks, coffee and chili, eyecandy, Japan and a life-long devotion to all things cyberpunk & slipstream. |
