Next generation 'trend' of Flash experience?
XRS Nowe Media
First the evolution of timeline-based-navigation. Now, inspired by airport terminal, which has all of the ambient and sound element when you are at that place. This site really captures it well, and should be one of the revolutionary one. What's very nice about this is the integration of the whole concept, planes, terminal, the 'ticking' sound. The good guys behind this.
Recruit 2007
Comparing to the XRS Nowe Media that is about some airline services, what similarity that shared among this 2 site is the navigation system. You are moving along the line.
Quasimondo : Incubator
One of the Flash developer page you shouldn't miss out anytime soon. You'll find Mario's experiment on generative art, prototypes on installation and more. But a look at the recent dugg article on his Minority Report 3D Cube prototype (you can control the cube with your hand!) has an interesting comment...
"...And if someone decides to decompile it and use the algorithms without my permission I will find out one day and sue that person's ass off..."
Chill out dude :D. Another noteworthy group that Mario's behind as well, côdeazur.
(côdeazur is the venture of four renowned software engineers, Claus Wahlers, Ralf Bokelberg, Mario Klingemann and Florian Krüsch.)
Pulpservices
The ambient of this site is just cool, bringing you through various quizes that is related to the services provided by this company, and the hands on experience is not bad, with being you walking around the forest with a piece of paper, marking down the answers on the paper. Reminds me of BadLuck-o-Meter.
FlipMo v.2
A really cool portfolio site really lives up to its name, Flipping Motion, as what you can see, every transition towards other section gives you a whole-moving section. Controlled dynamically with ActionScript and XML, I can say the cpu usage for this site is awesome, optimized and smooth between pages. And i'd want to congratulate him for winning few recognition and being nominated as the 6 finalists in Flashloaded for May. Kudos.
Frappr
Another RichMedia Application, that is going pretty hot and gaining momentum slowly, well, slow i mean. Which at this moment it's still beta, and acts more like a community site that lets you get to know where your friend located at, through the integration of google earth/maps. Similarity found @ shoutwire :D
Diesel | Cabinet of Visions
The brand, which is really has been infamous as one of the big brand incorporating designs strongly with fashion. I'm really suprised that the ambience of this site has gone way higher notch than I expect, from the loading screen that emulates the old TV screen, which flickers with dust and scratches, and when being at the main page, dropping petals. Awesome.
Mind Flood
Going back retro, this site aesthetically has the 'look' & 'feel' but what's more interesting is the organisation of the content, and how it is being presented. As the finalist of One Show Interactive, they're no small names to be reckon with, but I guess, featured work such as Red Bull MET and Interactive Mirror really does justify at where they stand now. Check em out.
Yoann Lemoine
One notable thing with this site is the 3D space around the main page, while on the other one, is the illustrations.
Mazda5 Quiksilver
Bling your car, the street style. We make graffiti out of anywhere or canvas we can find, the wall, table, bags and more, but, this time, legitly, on the car, pre-customized by designers.
The Formshape
Multi displicinary designer, from Crew11 (remember the toysite?), with just only 21 this year, does scores a lot of promising work so far. From visual identity to illustration. You just gotta dig into his style of presenting portfolio, 3D space in an interesting setting, leaves as transition
_moving
A bit on the experimental work asides, this Shockwave page provides you a random list of picture displayed all around that the installation has occurred. I guess you will have to check out the site for more interesting specs on it.
Full Throttle Energy Drink
Those dudes from BigSpaceship has done it again. Integration of FLV clips within the sites, transitions and smooth surfing experience, all packed into one, and of course, being in that site reminds me of a retro console game "Rock'N'Roll racing" back in the Sega Megadrive era. I guess that's how gaming really plays a big role inspiring some great works.
