Owl City Website

Just realised I never posted my website on here, so here it goes. This was for my digital practice lesson and it was to make a website using HTML and CSS for a music artist/band. I chose 'Owl City' an unsigned solo artist (despite being one of the most viewed on myspace) he makes cutesy electronic music which I took a liking to. I also thought it generated a lot of imagery ideas that I could use.

Here is my main page:


And here is a general walkthrough of my website:

Projection Art



Cool video that shows lots of different projections onto various 3d environments using some sort of 3d mapping system. My favourite is probably the projection of the buildings lights going on and off, simple but very clever.

Salt Sound Waves


I have no idea how this works, but it's pretty cool. It's an experiment using salt to physically represent sound, as the pitch gets higher the salt moves around and creates different patterns.

Warning: I'd turn your speakers down!
