the do lab artist network issue #5: spring 08

Lightning in a Bottle is in a week, and i have no time to write anything else, but check out this issue of the Artist Network. it’s all about stories so that’ll absolutely keep you entertained in the meantime. i will get back to having time to be more insightful after may 28th.

thank you to y2, brian shaw, albertico, and arin ingraham. it’s always an honor and pleasure to get to create inspiration with you.

the evolution of the LIB music player

LIB06:

an immobile little flash dookiy embedded in the site:

up close it looked like this:

at the time we thought it was quite the snazz.

LIB07:

we figured this kind of media thingie shouldn’t be trapped on our site, so we created a “portable” popup player that you could launch on our site, and then take along with you on your web travels:

the other cool thing about this portable online player is that it linked back to the LIB site, allowing peolpe to return with one click at any time.

and that was fine and dandy until…

LIB08:

we made the music player embeddable! now not only does it move (it still comes in popup form, that you can grab on the site), but it also rolls over, fetches, and sits wherever you tell it to:

Buy Tickets Line Up Workshops Art Forum

oh yeah, and it also let’s people passs it on too :). (tho if you happen to be seeing this in a feedreader, you prolly won’t see it. to see–or rather, hear what i’m talking about click HERE.)

(thanks to brian shaw and y2 for making this fancy thing happen! our widget don’t mess!)
