Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

GIFs might be everywhere on the internet these days, but one Polish artist is using them to turn everyday objects into dazzling digital artworks.

Feliks Konczakowski makes these hypnotising images with a little help from Adobe After Effects, to breathe fresh life into the likes of cauliflowers, doughnuts, watermelons, roses and pretzels.

His mesmerising orange is particularly beautiful, its vivid colours and detail spiralling like a staircase, while others are delightfully ambiguous and could be anything from coral and clouds to petals and popcorn.

The roaring tiger might give us nightmares and the ‘self-stirring morning coffee’ only makes our caffeine addictions stronger. One gif of a man seemingly wandering through computer hardware is so disorientating it's nauseating while others such as light reflecting off a spinning disc and a swirling washing machine are trippy and psychedelic.

Konczakowski shares his creations on his tumblr, where he describes himself as an “unpolished visual artist who probably comes from Mars”.

He began working on his designs six years ago but is admittedly inexperienced and only recently learnt how to save a GIF. Watch this space for yet more vortex visions.
