THE CENTRIFUGE BRAIN PROJECT
shortfilm and art project
written and directed by Till Nowak, starring Les Barany

I enjoyed it, though some of the rides were a little far fetched :)
The CGI was mostly believable, and the acting was not bad.
⬐ beernutzWow, can you imagine if that was REAL? Some of those speeds looked like they would just turn you to mush.⬐ SideburnsOfDoom⬐ kgartenSome of those rises look impossible to build from an engineering point of view.Some of the footage doesn't follow the usual rules of physics. The spherothon around 1:20 looks physically impossible - the people near the top of the sphere would not be held out at right angles to the surface of the sphere.
I mean, 14 hour-long, mile-high rides are funny. But can I imagine them actually being built? Well, no.
strange ... I submitted this 4 days ago: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5176279Seems the duplicate detection is not really working.
