Cirque du Soleil

Cirque du Soleil is the legendary performance circus, and has a fittingly legendary website. I haven’t come across a menu that has grabbed me as much as this one. I suppose its loosely based on the menu that Apple uses for their iTunes album selection on the iPhone (well that is the 1st place that I remember seeing something like this) but this is a very well revamped version of it. The menu loads for the casting area of the site, where people who are interested in joining the show can find their niche. It breaks down the acts to 8 categories, and as you move your mouse over them, the others zoom/blur out of the foreground and the selected one will ‘evolve’ into the show time version of that niche.

Infinite Oz - Tin Man

Infinite Oz - Tin Man is something to behold. Drawing inspiration from the famous Zoomquilt Project, a group of artists got together to make the new mini site for SCI-FI channel’s new mini-series “Tin Man”. What makes Infinite Oz so much more than the original Zoomquilt one, is how they have managed to tie in atmospheric sounds and a ‘visual distortion’ between the scenes which give the viewer an immersive trip into the world of oz. Its something that is very hard to explain, very hard indeed, but the more you are in the experience the more you … I actually dont have a word for this… so I’m just going to call it “A marvelous trip into the inner-mind-hole” :P
