To help support the launch of F.E.A.R 2, a live event was developed making players face real life fears as they played the game. Streamed over the course of an evening, players would take turns playing the game with and voted ‘fears’ such as snakes, dead fish etc would be introduced into their playing area. The event was streamed in real time and fear votes were cast by viewers, again in real time.

Following on from the Becks experiments, more playing with generating random illustrations using Flash.
Created in Adobe Flash and Actionscript. The illustration is randomly created in real time while analyzing pixel data taken from a base thumbnail photo of 100px 120px.
No two outputs are the same.

“One of the most innovative and exciting things we’re working on right now is Beck’s Fusions, a unique art and music fusion project that runs throughout this summer, as part of Beck’s longstanding support of contemporary arts and music. We’re working on a digital venture called Live Studio, open to anyone willing and able to display their artistic talents and express their individuality.”

I’ve not done much with my site for a very long time. I’m finally managing to pull my finger out and refresh some areas, the first being the main portfolio section.
Based in flash, this refreshed version has the same functionality as the last: allowing you to ‘zoom’ into illustrations and drag them around, but in a newer version of flash and allowing me to add some fancy new features.
