Created by Kenichi Yoneda (Kynd) in collaboration with Tokyo ‘visual label’ BRDG, [BRDG020] Lilium is an audio-visual experiment that combines Kynd’s research into water colour simulation with the music by Yopparigami/Yu Miyashita.

Kenichi Yoneda aka Kynd shows latest watercolour experiments at the recent openFrameworks Developer Conference held at YCAM as a part of the Yagamuchi Mini Market Faire.

Looom is a flipbook animation app for the iPad, reimagined. It invites users to a new way of creating hand-drawn animation.

Created by Kynd in collaboration with Yu Miyashita (Sound), ‘Expressions’ is a series of artworks exploring the physicality of thick and bold paint-like dynamic constructs that emerge from illuminated digital space revealing an intricate play of shapes, light and shadow.

As 2015 winds down we look back at almost 200 extraordinary projects we’ve covered this year on CAN. And as is the case every year, picking the ten ‘best’ is hard if not impossible, as each of them has driven the conversation around the state of art and design in their own unique way. And yet, the following ten works stuck with us and, if anything, make great starting points for reflection and inspiration as we head into the new year. Until we continue our coverage in early January: happy holidays and thank you all for a great 2015!

Ghost Are Dancing is a personal project made by Teresuac, mostly using Houdini with 2d motion vector technique combined with lighting in 3D. The resulting video is reminiscent of RGB+D project but with flair of drawings + watercolours by Kynd.

Kynd uses openFrameworks to create pencil-like drawings of photographs.
