For last weeks Release-Party of the new Chimbiss Website I revisited the code from my Hype Logo Animation and added some After Effects fast-motion and that’s what I came up with:

I just received an email from Joshua Davis that actually made me quite happy by telling me that I won the Hype Contest!

So after my last post on hype I kept on playing with it which eventually led to more visual output and another extension called ChainLayout.

At Halloween Joshua Davis and Branden Hall published a Framework for Generative Design called HYPE. Soon after they started a contest to encourage people to start playing with it.
Already before this contest was announced I had of course grabbed a copy and started to play with it. First I tried and compared it to my diploma project Coded Beauty which finally led me to writing my first extension for HYPE.

Yesterday I was at a wonderful exhibition opening at the net.culture.space which is a branch of the well known Ars Electronica Center.

The exhibition is called “Magic Moments” and aims to break the barriers between the real and the digital world.
