This amazing 10 minute video by Evan Roth is made entirely out of animated .gif images he found on the web. I don't even want to think about how many of them I have saved on my computer. Favorites at 5:38 and 5:45. (Laughing Squid via F.A.T.)
Evan Roth captures graffiti in 3D, does huge projections on the side of buildings, and makes it reactive to sound. Sooooo cool and this is just the trailer. Bonus: Check out Evan's awesome business card!

Who is the bigger intellectual property asshole? Evan Roth created hand painted canvases of Shepard Fairy's Obama Hope poster, and Mannie Garcia's Associated Press photograph and put them for sale on his website. Whoever sends a cease and desist first wins!
Artist Evan Roth laser cuts messages into steel plates and puts them into carry-on bags where they can be read by TSA employees during airport x-ray screening. Messages include “NOTHING TO SEE HERE” and “MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS.”
Music Buzz Why is Evan Roth a bad ass mother fucker? Because he makes videos like this! Jay-Z video where the word Brooklyn creates the rapper's image. It was created as part of a campaign to fight AIDs in Africa and it is the first rap video with its own open source code!
