Gail Albert Halaban is a photographer from New-York City who’s project “Out My Window” is a photographic book of city dwellers peering into their neighbors’ windows. In this series, she captures city landscapes where strangers are encapsulated in some intimate moments. While the photographs may be staged, it’s the real dynamics of human interaction that is a constant in our daily lives. Gail Albert Halaban’s pictures are formal studies in which architectural grids create syncopating, all-over visual rhythms. But you will easily notice that there are people in some of the apartments, they are not doing anything particular, no sex or violence but there is a true glimpse of some ordinary people’s intimacy. Finally we are all voyeurs. Represented by TRUE MGMT.

She has created Night Views, a series in which cityscapes and the intimate lives of the people who inhabit them are brought together in a provocative fusion.

These original visions are somewhere between the hyperrealist canvases of Edward Hopper and Alfred Hitchcock’s Rear Window.

Damien Doussaud AKA Namide is a 28 years old French creative developer. He tries to induce an emergence by programming. His website is developed using Flash with 3D engine Minko. The 3D models and textures are only generated by algorithms that means these digital paintings are extremely light.
Namide uses this process to obtain emerging design, the scripts help him to create a graphic environment and each time you refresh the website’s URL, the world looks like the previous one, but it’s never exactly the same. The shaders create a colored fog when the user is in the forest, and a white fog when the user is in the clouds; In addition they automatically displaces grass, particles and foliages. The navigation through questions is also original, you can check his lab here if interested: lab.namide.com/
