Making Future Magic: iPad light painting from Dentsu London on Vimeo.
There are lots of contenders for the killer app that’ll take the iPad to the next level, and we think light extrusion is currently near the top of the heap. Dentsu London has paired accelerometer-based software with long exposure/stop-motion photographs to take 3D renderings into real space, with a result that reminds us of the Graffiti Research Lab.

Here is what Gary Shapiro CEO of the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) said: Dvorak's writing sings with insight and clarity. Whether or not you agree with John's views, he will get you thinking and is never boring. These essays are worth the read!

Errr… I think you posted the wrong video.
OK, I may as well be the one to start the flame war.
CRAP!
(like most ‘modern art’)
Definitely creative thinking.
Cool idea, not a holograph tho.
im actually designing holographs.
Maybe you are both right. I think it’s creative crap but it’s still crap.
Isn’t a “killer app” supposed to be something that is so compelling that many people will want to buy the hardware just so they can run the application?
If so, I don’t see how thus application qualifies as a killer app. Perhaps a dozen people (world-wide?) would be interested in this?
Oh wow, look at this incredible waste of time! sometimes the art world pisses me off with gimmicky art… but than i get pissed off cause everythings a gimmick… either way, i still think this is a waste of time
This is not a killer app! It’s stop motion animation done poorly.
I agree it is a big waste of time. But you got to admit it’s a cool concept and somebody spent a lot of time coding.
Interesting way to stop animation.
Though for me..it seems more a demonstration of time and the sample rates different people observe it at.
nifty.
-s
(wonder what the production time per minute of “film” is)
Cool idea, but it will take a lot more than that to overcome my distaste for Steve Jobs’ ego.
finally a use for the i pad!
What a complete and utter load of unadulterated crap lovingly fused with arrogant inflatable egos.
Now that is just plain stupid. A use of technology for the sake of using the technology, regardless of how utterly stupid the use.
Next ‘killer app’: juggling iPads. They could make them show knives or chainsaws or kittens.
Here is a more interesting video made recently with a Nokia cellphone and a microscope attachment… another use of technology just for technology’s sake, but at least interesting, and you really have to admire the patience that this must have required to make:
nothing easy about this…which makes me wonder why they didn’t do something better if they’re going to spend that much time making something…
13 – That’s ridiculous. everyone knows it’s aerodynamically impossible for bumblebees to fly – especially with a passenger!
Isn’t that cute.
Boring “art,” after just 30 seconds.
Yawn.
pedro is up in his bedroom right now playing angry birds on his blackberry.
But guys, it said stuff like “FUTURE” and ” MAGIC”. Don’t you get it ?
