Recently, two of great screensavers have been available to be downloaded. They have an opposite styles each. It seems like hybrid vs. pure (defined by Joshua Davis).
Which one do you like?
One of them was made by the world famous genius designer / programer Andreas Muller @ Hi-ReS! Absolutely beautiful! No one can make same like this. I mean it's a very unique artwork.
I'd heard that Florian who is the Hi-ReS!'s founder was studying about movie when he was an university student. And this is kinda famous story, the Drum and Bass artist Clifford Gilberto who belonged to Ninja Tune was that Florian, actually.
Hi-ReS! is not the bunch of programers (but of course the skills of programing are amazing too though). They are not only a web production but also a group that's standing at the part of an art field, I think.
This kinda group is very rare in this industry so far.
And the another one was made by THA which represents Tokyo.
Yugo Nakamura the founder of THA is kinda physics master. Before he came to web industry, he was designing some huge bridges.
I feel that his style is very technically. Also his taste of design is very simple. It reminds me like Bauhaus or early Swiss style.
Recently, he is collaborating with Kashiwa Sato often. Kashiwa Sato is one of the most popular designer / art director recent in Japanese advertising scene. Also this screensaver was made by two of them.
Kashiwa Sato's style of creative work is very simple and clean too. They are completely good matching each other, I think.
Kashiwa Sato Screensaver : "Texture"
The THA's one is kinda RSS reader, but the Andreas's one is not functional. Just beautiful.
It's possible to figure out their own different approaches by this story too.
