Animated & Interactive






 
Andreas Loeschner-Gornau: Animations

Andreas Loeschner- Gornau presents several of his Gif animations in the Art Gallery. In "MOSS I CHEW", a new and really innovative quality of animations has been developed: several pictures present the same motif, but at different times and with different perspectives. Fabulous! But don't miss his other animations and art works, they are not less remarkable.

   
Blueberry Design: Interactive Games

The Blueberry Design Center here presents a lot of attractive pages: "Totally Chilled" is a collection of sites, presenting "Cool Sites of the Day", the daily updated "Horace Cope" offers information about that day, not only interesting for birthday boys and girls. If you just want some diversions to keep you from an honest days work, stroll over to the Meta Pier: Games, games and more interactive games, some of which you can play from within the comfort of your web browser.

 
   
 
Interactive Online-Geometry

Without doubt, there is a lot of math here, much more natural science then arts. Yet the fascinating thing is: you can play around and experiment yourself and the results are generally remarkable. Let some curves be drawn (looking like fish), build your personal rainbow, compute the curves run by a pinball machine ball, investigate the Teichmuller-Navigator or the Pascal theorem! No idea what it is? No problem. What you draw and construct will look fabulous nevertheless. Visiting this site you'll get a sense of the interactive potentialities of the web and possibilities for presenting arts or scientfic exhibits.

   
d o t c o m

Not painting according to numbers but composing according to squares is presented here. Check off some squares and then look (and listen!) how this structure is changed into music. Percussion or bass for beginners, instrumental mix for professionals. Maybe a three year old child learning the piano makes a similar discovery: doesn't know how and why it happens, but some sounds are really great! (other ones less) And don't forget to store your most brilliant compositions in the visitors' list!

 
   
 
MicroMovie MiniMultiplex

MicroMovie MiniMultiplex welcomes you with an impressive initial page, based on some very interesting and surprising animations. The list with links to other animation sites is vast and encloses many categories: science fiction, people, comedy, games and so on. Or enter your own animation in the list. Or take home some smaller Gifs for use on your own website.

   
Tom's Gallery

Tom's Gallery offers a lot of Gif-Animations from many websites and is updated quite often. He presents the gifs he found worthwhile, not those tiny and annoying images used on so many commercial as well as private sites. Furthermore all authors are presented, and you will find a lot of tricks and links to animation tools.

 
   
 
The USC Interactive Art Museum

This is the web site of "an Art Museum for the Digital Age", we are told. Java is a must for this site! You can move and turn around exhibits like the sculpture "The Maiden", by manipulating a robot with a camera, getting a new perspective with each mouse-click. Several galleries can currently be visited--Romance with Nature: Nineteenth-Century American Landscapes, Light in Darkness: Women in Japanese Prints, and Telerobotic Stereo Viewing: The Drinking Maiden. The goal of the project is to develop an Interactive Art Museum on the World Wide Web, with video cameras to view three-dimensional works and participate interactively, in real time, in art performances and installations.

   
FLOW - DIG - RETURN

It's just fun to look at the pictures, animations and layout on this site. FLOW probably is one of the most impressing animations you'll find on the WWW. Strictly spoken it's not a single animation, but a scenario of many, arranged on your screen. Flow has three parts (Flow, Dig, Return), 50-70k each, and you have to click on an image to move over. Even if you don't figure out what's the connection between Einstein, bugs and naked girls, even if you don't think that this art is much more "l'art pour l'art": The animated show is impressive and inspiring.

 
   
 
The Greatest Animations on the Web

This is the "Animation-Wing" of The Fine Site, a gallery with twelve artistically outstanding gif animations. They are quite different: witty, philosophical, ironical, contemplative, but they are all eye-candy! (Don't expect gifs here to take away for your home page, here you'll rather find "works of gif-art.")

 
Komar & Melamid: The Most Wanted Paintings

What kind of paintings do French women like most? And the Russian men, what kind of art do they like? The artists Komar & Melamid want to find out the aesthetic tastes and preferences of different nations. A questionnaire (5 pages) with about 10 questions is to be filled out. Which do you prefer: animals or people, colored or monochrome, old or new motifs? The answers of previous visitors are presented too. Our impression: breathtaking landscapes of trees, meadows and animals are loved most - worlwide.

 
   
 
Homeland: 1002 Situations

This is a museum pradicated on the active participation of visitors. You are invited not only to read and consume but also to tell stories and write them down. For this purpose, a series of showrooms (topics) is set uo where one can tell one's feelings, memories and associations dealing with the theme "homeland." Childhood, language, food, community, everyday life and the environment, all find their places here. And you'll find contributions from many visitors - funny, intimate, sentimental, naive and sometimes trivial. There are anecdotes, poems, aphorisms, jokes and stories. And some images are to be found as well, old family photographs as well as one's beloved teddy bear. The concept of home is exceptional and the vistors' texts as well!
