nyle – let the beat build

Posted on: 29 December 2009

Flicking through Vimeo’s Top 25 videos of 2009 – we can’t believe we slept on this. Flipping Lil Wayne’s ‘Let the beat build‘ – Philadelpha born rapper Nyle and a talented musical cast create one of the most visually and acoustically impressive things we’ve seen in a while. Add to this the fact that both audio and video were shot simultaneously in one take with the formidable Red One camera, and you have further reason for coolography approval.

10/GUI multitouch system

Posted on: 14 October 2009

coolography recently stumbled across this video, outlining a revolutionary new concept for a true multi-touch user interface system. Named 10/GUI, the system approaches the use of multitouch technology from the ground up, presenting a truly innovative way to communicate with your computer. Proposed by designer R. Clayton Miller, the 10/GUI system utilises the full range of 10 fingers on a dedicated trackpad area, allowing for fluid, flexible and intuitive information manipulation that is unavailable to us with the simple point-and-click nature of the humble mouse.

Take the time to watch the video – it is a likely glimpse in to how we will all be using computers in the near future.
