A commenter on this morning’s letterpress dice printing post pointed me to this amazing video for British band Fujiya & Miyagi’s song “Ankle Injuries,” which is, apparently, animated from still photographs in which each individual frame has been built as a mosaic from a field of variously-colored and -rotated dice. [Thanks, Jeffrey!]

Too bad there isn’t a way to do that automatically like the way an LED message sign scrolls text. Can’t imagine how you’d turn the dice though.
I could see a robot making those mosaics using guidance from some form of graphics-interpreter program.
My name is not ACTUALLY pete. It’s a reference to my “character”: http://overcompensating.com/posts/20090119.html
And, when I originally saw this years ago, I decided I wanted to make a video plugin that would recreate the effect with scanned images of the dice.
Woops! Sorry! I assume, then, that you are Jeffrey? Hope so, because I updated the post that way. =] You can e-mail me at sean@makezine.com if I still don’t have it right.
