Encylopedia Pictura

Encyclopedia Pictura are a trio of film-makers responsible for Knife by Grizzly Bear, one of the most brain-melting music videos of the past decade. That film's bizarre ecological theme is common throughout their work, which can be viewed here, alongside behind-the-scenes footage illustrating their craft. See Bjork's Wanderlust video, numerous short films of their own and, in the works, a children's movie about "about a gang of kids who hack, scout, make, farm, and build their way out of a catastrophic situation in Pennsylvania 2023". The augmented reality that features in their films also extends to the trio's lives and an eco-community they've set up called Trout Gulch Farm.

Street Art View

Google Street View finds another use here as an open air gallery. Zoom in from a map of the world and you can locate a selection of murals, graphics and creative graffiti all captured by Google's cameras. Rather brilliantly, once you zoom down to a specific site Flickr links overlay photographs, so if the piece you're looking at has faded over time you can see what it looked like in its original state. This is particularly useful when searching for Banksy's London and Bristol originals, as many have become victims of vandalism, tagging and over zealous councils. Other artists such as Space Invader and Blu are represented and you can also contribute to the latest additions with your own finds.
