Stuck in a k-hole

Tuesday, July 08, 2008
http://www.neave.com/ is an experimental site from London based interactive designer, Paul Neave.

I have never been stuck in a k-hole, but this is what I would imagine it feels like. Like. You. Will. Never. Leave.

The television without context page is crazy / genius. I don't know how long I watched it for, maybe ten minutes, but at one stage I thought I was not going to be able to stop watching. Ever.

There is a planetarium that will bring the night sky to your web browser. You can move your mouse through space, point at stars, find out constellations and how far away they are in light years. 9.46 trillion kilometers is very far away.

The strobe page, is not for epileptics. Neave says "look into my strobing lines of wonder and turn your eyes into jelly. Everything should appear like you're underwater... or moving into flashback." I got scared with this one and had to abort. I was frightened my cerebellum was going to melt.

If you still need more, there are balls that bounce to music, lights that flash, an anaglyph that lets you draw in red-blue 3D, as well as mathematics that become "pretty geometric patterns" that repeat forever. Well, not forever, apparently the computer has its limits even if I don't. There is also a digital dandelion that you can allegedly blow out by blowing into your microphone. I accidentally blew into the camera, so I don't technically know if this feature works or not and now everyone thinks I'm on crack so I'm too scared to try it again. (Maybe you could and let me know?)

Seriously, just go take a look.
