Plasma turned Art

Categories: Art + Graphics

I have been looking for some visual eye candy for the Plasma screen. Sort of the screen-saver when you are not watching TV, but want some background interest.

I have seen a lot of waterfalls, sunsets and the sort. But I am looking for something more visually stimulating or interesting. Not in-your-face loud, but something in the background, that if noticed, is kind of cool.

I looked into Colorcalm : a 180 minute DVD designed by Dutch graphic designer Irma Boom and artist/MIT professor John Maeda. It is supposed to be really cool, but their site could use a serious update to show that.

Looking into it, I saw there was a review by Apartment Therapy and MocoLoco.

I will let you know if I get it. If anyone else has suggestions, please let me know.

Thanks!

  1. I read you on the livejournal feed. I thought I’d suggest:
    http://plasmawindow.com/ (may be what you need)
    http://www.dvdinternational.com/cat_aquarium.cfm
    (nice but a bit low end)
    http://www.vat19.com/dvds/ambientseries.cfm?ADID=PLASMATV2&gclid=CMLro5m4goQCFUoRGgodGRRGhg” (Vat 19′s Ambient Series)
    We don’t have a plasma (yet!) but our TV sits in a fireplace surround and I went through these places to get the screen savers so that TV was a far more attractive focal point.
