Iamstatic is back with a redesign and new members. Featured works are by James Paterson and Randy Knott. I saw Randy’s “Don’t Forget to Remember” in a theatre on a big screen while at a conference in Moncton last year. It’s a great linear Flash piece that makes me wish for a perfect world where great work like that is shown in theatres … instead of the stuff that is usually shown there. It’s great to see Iamstatic back!
I just checked out the Winter 2003 issue of Born Magazine. There is some great stuff there. The “Just Born” section combines an artist and a writer to create an interactive experience. Some good poetry and interactivity that was just the right thing for me at the end of a long week. Especially interesting visually and aurally was “August 10″ by Debbie Urbanski and Abnorm.
“The Birthing Room” features more experimental explorations of interactivity. I love “The Language of New Media” by George Shaw and Thomas Swiss which you have to solve puzzles to move forward through the words…with the words concealed in the interface, or is it the interface concealed in the words?
