Gorgeous machinima video for surreal Creative Commons story

Posted in Live (January 16, 2008 at 6:29 pm)

Wagner James Au sez, “Taking a CC-licensed reading of a strange Sherwoood Anderson short story, UK artist Lainy Voom has created a dazzlingly weird Second Life-based machinima from it. (Boing Boing featured Lainy’s equally great Tale from Midnight City last year.) Interestingly, most of the surreal images (giant eyeballs etc.) were shot ‘live’ without post-production. Music’s from Magnatune while the movie itself is CC-licensed, making it a great showcase for Creative Commons.”

I’m not a big fan of surrealist fiction, but the incredibly visuals in this make it the most beautiful machinima I’ve seen to date.
