Hominid: predation among the human-skeleton'ed prehistoric creatures

Cory Doctorow 5:38 pm Wed Nov 7, 2012

Brian Andrews has spent many years producing his striking "Hominid" images, described as "photo composites made from human and veterinary images creating hominid creatures." Now, these images have been animated, and the result is beautiful and haunting and profoundly, wonderfully disturbing.

Hominid is an animated teaser based on the Hominid series of photo composites by Brian Andrews. The series has been exhibited internationally, including at SIGGRAPH, in the Hong Kong Exhibition Center, and at numerous galleries. This animated teaser was produced at Ex'pression College for Digital Arts. Be on the lookout for future Hominid animations.
