  • Also Impressive: 3-D Tetris Chalk Drawing Stop-Motion
    April 3, 2013
    Because I don't discriminate between Post-It animations and chalk animations (I'll watch anything that pisses away two minutes at work), this is a 3-D chalk art stop-motion from Chris Carlson (of 3-D Snake game fame) of Tetris being played. Amazingly, the player manages to set... / Continue →
  • Is That Cat Food?: Giant 3-D Mario Canned Food Display
    March 21, 2013
    This is the 3-D Mario canned food display set up in the middle of South Center Mall in Calgary, Canada. I don't really get the relationship between Mario and canned food, but I'm not exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer either. Or the dullest. Get it? Because I'm a spat... / Continue →
  • 3-D Stop Motion Of 'Snake Game' Being Played In Chalk
    February 25, 2013
    This is an impressive stop motion of a game of 3-D 'Snake' being played, all draw (and erased) in chalk by Chris Carlson. It looks like it took some serious patience, which I have zero of. If I had made it would have been the worse game of 'Snake' ever played. Miss the first... / Continue →
  • Pokemon Game Recreated In 3-D From The Ground Up
    February 6, 2013
    Pokemon 3D is a fan effort to recreate Pokemon in a 3D environment. It was built from scratch and is moddable so if you want to make all the Pokemon look like your friends so you can watch them battle it out to the death, you can. You want to make all the trees look like nake... / Continue →
  • Your Own 3D Printed Head Atop A PEZ Dispenser
    January 30, 2013
    Ever wanted your own head on top of a PEZ dispenser? Who hasn't? Well now Hot Pop Factory has devised a way to do just that by scanning your dome using an X-Box Kinect and printing it out using a 3-D printer. I just got mine in the mail today, see? "You look like a 3-D ultr... / Continue →
  • Smart Move: LucasFilm Ditches Work On 3-D Re-Release Of Crappy Prequels To Focus On New Film
    January 29, 2013
    Well, that saves me organizing two picket lines. In news that pleases me (but not nearly as much as if they'd never existed), LucasFilm has decided to cease work on the 3-D theatrical re-release of the other two crappy Star Wars prequels, deciding instead to focus its efforts ... / Continue →
  • Trippy 3D GIF Of Mario And Link Bullet Bill-ing The Moon
    January 28, 2013
    Note: My brain has been sludge while I've been sick so I apologize for sucking so hard the past week but with the help of modern medicine (in the form of sketchy meds I ordered from an online Canadian pharmacy) I should be back to my normal, only moderately less sucky self by t... / Continue →
  • 3-D Picture Of Central Park Viewed Directly From Above
    January 10, 2013
    Note: Very worthwhile higher-res version HERE in case you were hopping to spot a nude sunbather in the park. This is a 3-D composite shot of New York's Central Park and the surrounding buildings stitched together by photographer Sergey Semonov using a bunch of panoramic pictur... / Continue →
  • Augmented Reality TARDIS With Spacious Interior
    December 26, 2012
    This is a little augmented reality TARDIS created by Greg Kumparak. When one side is viewed through a smartphone, you can see a 3D model of the spacious TARDIS interior inside. Pretty neat. Reminds me of the time my friends and I tried to see how many of us could fit inside ... / Continue →
  • A Photobooth That Creates 3-D Printed Figurines
    November 13, 2012
    Omote 3D is a new photo booth (not actually a photo booth but a little studio) set to open in Tokyo's Harajuku district that creates 3-D printed figurines of a person instead of a photo strip. All you have do is stand perfectly still for 15-minutes while you're scanned with a... / Continue →
