  1. Live-action Tetris

    This is not cool to admit, but I’ve never really cared about the Nintendo Wii. I’m somewhat impressed that it’s given a traditionally sedentary activity some degree of physicality, sure—but I’ve simply never been much of a gamer. With the exception of Tetris. I used to play Tetris for hours upon feverish hours on an old-school, brick-sized Game Boy. I’d play until I saw game pieces in my dreams at night and embedded in the kitchen-floor tiles at my mom’s house. And I just don’t see any compelling reason for Tetris to require any physical activity. At all.

    Then I saw this movie by Swiss creative agency NOTsoNOISY. Part of the GAME OVER project, human pixels are grouped into Tetris pieces by matching t-shirts. They move from seat to seat in a theater, and it all gets animated into a short film. I’m sure this would be awfully frustating to try out with your friends, but a great idea all the same.
