Think about action, danger and sports at the same time. And you’ll probably recall parkour discipline and freerunning in Top 5. My list would include freegliding, free climbing… U-uh, I realize that something fishy about doing something “freely” in sports, I guess. Doing parkour in crowded areas always risky but there’s a choreography in the moves as well. Permutation City is an experiment about video production, AI and parkour.
Permutation City: Glimpses of Movement
The creators didn’t credit themselves on both Vimeo and Instagram profiles. But all the footage belongs to STORROR Parkour Team. Maybe they did it, who knows? However, the focal point is the team created to custom software using rust and python and trained the algorithm to fit perfects sequences and movements into the core composition.
And the beauty is movements not always shows the same type of jumping and tumbling. Sometimes footages fits well, that figure only walking or floating. But completes the track as well. This type of video production without algorithm could take months or even years. But this assistance creates extra value to finished work and I believe Permutation City will inspire many creative agencies and pitch this style their advertising campaigns.
Run Forever is a perfect metaphor for running until dusk and dawn, created by Universal Everything which describes themselves as a remote-working collective of digital artists, experience designers, and future makers.
Between Lines is an animated short film directed by talented Sarah Beth Morgan and created every second of it by an all-women team. The story is about the scars created by bullying in high school and lifelong recovery of these memories.
The music video of SOUTHPAW is covered by Kuricoder Quartet and animated by Sawako Kabuki, and if you don’t know the original song or video, it doesn’t matter.
