Google SketchUp is a deceptively simple, amazingly powerful tool for creating, viewing, and modifying 3D ideas quickly and easily.”

I used this program and within 5 minutes I was creating really good 3d models of architectures. I think it’s even capable of animation!

Andrea Breitman is a talented, off-beat artist.

Her fascination lies in the daily functions and dysfunctions that she observes around her. Yhe artwork, which lies a little to the left, is her way of making light of the things that boggle her, both personally and generally.

She’s also the mind behind the 2nd annual 3 feet high show at Maxwell’s, open til June 23rd.

Visit her at Kneehigh.net.

Bizarro Cartoons From Coney Island’s Death

Coney Island as we know it is will be gone soon. The real estate developers are closing in to do a 2 billion dollar makeover, turning it into a Six Flags-Las Vegas-Applebee’s-condo development. Basically, it’s going to suck. It’s a tragedy.

I went there this weekend with my camera to capture the old school Coney Island before it’s swept away by history. For those of you who’ve never been there, the amusement parks of Coney Island are the tackiest, weirdest, seediest, and greatest places on earth. An endless maze of bizarre games and rides.

I found there to be alot of mysterious cartoons, graphic design, and sculptures that I know the Frederator community would enjoy. Have a look:

made by the scientists at Zytronics

looks like a Jim Woodring painting, doesn’t it?

The hand was 3/D and you wrestled it!

Is she bleeding?

It’s like an awesome 80’s fantasy!

It’s “Alive”!

What kind of man are you?

Where does this stuff come from? Who made it, and when? What does it all mean? This is your last summer ever to see it all for yourself. Take one last trip to Coney Island, you won’t regret it.

Cyriak Harris’s unique motion graphics are extremely…unique. Below are 2 animations of his and they’re just unbelievable.

Below is another great one, and my favorite part are the vehicles when they’re walking by themselves!
