Infinite Th0ught & Cinestatic Research

Blog and Website worth a look from a wider perspective of the course, Anything Ballardian always piques my interest.

Nice site

I found this while researching for my essay, and  thought how beautifully simple it is as an interface, and very beautiful photographs too.

It’s Nearly Here…

Christmas was coming
Geese were clapping on weight like there was no tomorrow
And hats were full of assorted coinage from all the four corners of the globe.
It mattered not that one had neither low denomination currency
Nor the lowest denomination, currently in circulation and legal tender itself
For God in his heaven would shower his beneficence, like the snow that would surely fall
On all.

Interactive Novel on a Handheld Console

Nintendo’s DS is the ‘handheld’ arm of its domination of the gaming industry at present and with ‘Braintraining’ and other ‘Casual/Family/other than hardcore games’ at every turn of a webpage it’s great to see something a little bit different. There is a bit about plot, what’s looked for in a game and its development.

Hotel Dusk: Room 215 is an interactive novel and the article about its creation is worth a look.

Happy Christmas

 

 

Open Source

I was specifically thinking of Jane when I stumbled across this – http://opendesigns.org/ – but it fits in with what we have been learning about – networks and collaboration, democratisation etc.

Nintendo Europe website change

Nintendo Europe are about to change their website. It was initially set up in 2002 and the remake is going live at the end of November sometime.

Nintendo have a busy site with lots of information to disseminate, the current site is OK so it will be interesting to see how the makeover goes from a user interaction perspective.

I just caught this today so I thought I’d share it so we can see what a large corporation thinks about providing interactivity on the web and critique its change.
