Kung fu joins CG animation in the coolest thing we’ve seen today [video]

Kung Fu is one of those mythical and extremely spiritual things that us human beings can do, along with singing in the shower, roughly kneading dough and creating gorgeous stop-motion computer-generated visualisations.

It’s the former and latter than come together in this frigidly cool video.

Numbers-loving artist Tobias Gremmler decided to take the human (and very mathematically-based) motions of kung fu and translate that into a range of visualisations using a fabric-like sweep of pixels across the screen. It’s quite remarkable how gorgeous the interpretation really is.

Published on Vimeo two weeks ago, the video has since racked up an impressive 292 000 views and just under 3000 likes from the community. The video also made it as one of Vimeo’s Staff Picks.

If you fancy adding to those numbers, have a look at the video below and prepare to gawk.
