Sigg Jones
Another great animation by Asterokid, this time depicting an odd fight between a futuristic boxer and, what I assume is his coach. Again, Asterokid’s work is beautiful and fluid.

Galactic Mail
Galactic Mail is an incredible animation depicting a competition in the distant future between different mail services to get a customer. The style is reminiscent to that of Jamie Hewlett (art for the Gorillaz)

Mabona Origami
A myriad of intricate origami from abstract to more traditional designs by the Switzerland-based Sipho Mabona.
“Sipho Mabona’s origami covers a great range of different styles from very intricate representational designs to abstract geometrical shapes. The impeccable folding and his great sense for lines and shapes distinguishes Mabona’s work of art.”

Julien Vallée – New York Times Magazine
This animation has been doing the rounds of the creativity blogs for some time but thought people should be reminded of the beautiful stop motion piece by Montreal artist Julien Vallée.
Julien Vallée, who had an exhibition not too long ago, has some other very impressive ‘tangible’ work in his portfolio including paper sculptures, as well as a few more less ‘tangible’ animations.
