Drew’s Video of the Day: Moving ‘Still Life’ Artwork [VIDEO]

I love when someone uses technology to create art. I feel like it's a great merger of classic principles and modern resources, and it shows that human beings are capable of thinking outside the box.

Artist Scott Garner used modern technology to bring new life to a traditional art form.

This framed TV is hung on a rotating mount so that it swivels from side to side. A motion sensor is hooked to the back of the TV. As the screen moves, the tilt data is fed into a computer.
The computer, in turn, runs a video game engine from Unity 3D that Garner programmed so that it moves all the objects in the digital scene as they would in real life.

The end result is relatively simple, but I feel like it says a lot about where technology, and the human imagination, are headed.
