Wall painted animation on the evolution of life

By now you're probably familiar with Blu, the people that do those incredible wall painted animations. Well, they've done another one, which expands the medium a little bit to also incorporate physical objects, and at some point even people.

This one is called "Big Bang Big Boom", and tells the tale of the evolution of life, all the way from the first prokaryotes up to us moderately advanced human beings. It's more humorous than scientific, as this is more about the art than the intellect. But that does not matter; it's again a phenomenal piece of work, with a pretty apocalyptic but spectacular ending.

This collaborative animation "COMBO" between Blu and David Ellis makes for some perfect lunchtime eye-candy.

Muto by Blu; surreal wall-painted animation

Fantastic wall painted animation 'Muto' by Blu studio, touching upon themes like multiple identities, morphing bodies, blending of flesh and technology, metamorphosis, and even mind-body dualism as at some point a man's brain starts living an own life and evolves into a new man with butterfly wings, seemingly signifying that the most beautiful self we can become is hidden in our minds and needs to evolve separate from our body. This animation, definitely inspired by genetic engineering, is sometimes a bit silly but nevertheless highly inspirational once you take it seriously that this sort of art can be a precursor to actual developments that become more and more prevalent in our everyday lives.
