Another Zen moment from Jmarie...

http://www.theturn.tv/

unusual site designed to highlight the work of a performance artist. As you throw the blocks around, if you put certain ones in the circle, it plays the artist's music videos. Some parts are very cool, but others are a little difficult to maneuver through. All in all a cool site.

britanick.com

i came across these guys on youtube and their videos are hilarious! i decided to check out their website and was surprised by its simple set up, but effective means of conveying info. it makes good use of the overflow technique we just learned about too, and has given me some good ideas for my own site

PBR ART

http://www.pbrart.com/

I love Pabst Blue Ribbon Beers, I also love this website! You have to be 21 to explore the site but you can create your own PBR art with a program that has stamps and logos, and you can look in the gallery of all the really cool, creative PBR art that past artists have created. There's everything from paintings, to poetry, to sculptures. Really fun website!

zen and the down load...

http://www.prettyloaded.com/

I also found this website on Communication Arts award winner webpage. It is a site dedicated to archiving all the "loading countdowns" it can find. Although very simple, it is obsessive and crazy zen-like.

very cool, site set up is not the best, but interesting.

crazy graphic novel web site

http://www.scarygirl.com/

I found this site on the Communication Arts site for 2010 award winners for web design. The site is meant to sell toys and books related to the Graphic Novel "Scary Girl". There is a game on the site as well that is very cool and really addictive. I love the artwork and think the site is pretty easy to navigate. It's a shame the shop isn't up and running yet, but otherwise very cool.

prime gallery website

the prime gallery is a gallery site i stumbled across while researching for a different art class project. it offers a very simple approach to organizing and displaying a large amount of art. the gallery display is something i like a lot for its simplicity, and i plan on emulating its design. for my sites gallery pages.

Passion Pit Website

http://www.passionpitmusic.com/

Not only do I love the band, their website is pretty neat too. Its very organized, clean, simple, and easy to navigate. I like the background image too, and how it fades into different colors after a few seconds. I think it's a very creative cute website.

Really neat photography here. Easy to navigate, along with a soft cream color to accent the work. Gallery is simple but has thumbnails and next buttons make it easy for the work you want to see available.

This website is really neat. It seems to take a while to load page to page due to the fancy background, but as a whole it looks and functions pretty neat. I do wish they stylized the menu bar a bit more. Definately sweet work worth checking out though.

fun t-shirt designs

i found this site and i like alot of the designs. i especially like the where's waldo/castaway image.

Teacher Website

I really like the purpose and design of this website. Its a great way for teachers to connect with students better and provide 24/7 access to assignments and different ways to learn the subject. I think it's great that this teacher is using the web to reach out to her students.

Hope Website

The website I used in my presentation.

I met the artist who makes these sinks, at a home show. His work was just exquisit, and I got to chat with him about it for a while. He handed me his information and I decided to visit his website as a resource for this course where we are building our own artists websites.
His site seemed a little cluttery, and I really did not like the colors. But the work makes it worth while to surf around his page.
