Ahmed Alireza, “Kitchen Interior 4″, 2006
A deceptively simple 3d-rendered interior by Ahmed Alireza is given richness and atmosphere by an unusual composition and the subtle effect textures have on reflected light.
Jean-Francois Rauzier, “Voyages Extraordinaires”, 2009
Another Hyperphoto from Jean-Francois Rauzier, exemplifying his ability to create all-encompassing viewpoints. Difficult to represent on a web page, this work seems to wrap around the viewer while simultaneously being both “zoomed out” and “zoomed in”.
Adam Martinakis, “Space With Two Suns”, 2010
Adam Martinakis’s virtual scenes could never exist in the physical world and yet seem like real, atmospheric places.

Another unsettling and surreal piece from Gilles Tran. The use of unexpected diagonals gives an everyday scene an enormous twist.
Alex Dragulescu, “Pwslineage”, 2002-2008
This peice is part of the series “Malwarez”. Comissioned by Messagelabs, Alex Dragulescu’s software creates virtual organisms in response to the effect that Worms, Trojans, Viruses and Spyware have on a computers internal systems.

We were lucky enough to visit Tokyo a few years ago. Whilst there we saw the amazing Omotesando Hills, a shopping centre and housing development designed by Tadao Ando. It runs along Omotesando Avenue one of Tokyo’s premier luxury shopping streets. All down the length of the Avenue the façade is made up of huge LCD [...]
Gilles Tran, “Family”, 2003
Gilles Tran, the artist, remarks this piece is “the by-product of a commissioned work for a record cover from the progressive US rock band Vox Tempus.” Painstakingly created with an open source renderer, it is oddly haunting.
Jon Bailey, “Y[our-s]UKKAH”, 2010
